This is the stunningly cheesy recipe that made Tini Younger the most popular woman chef on TikTok after she posted it in 2023. At 21, she already had professional training and culinary instincts that set her recipe apart. Blooming the spices for the sauce in butter, carefully cooking the roux, whisking in evaporated milk and cream for richness, and using a blend of hand-grated cheeses are nonnegotiables. Corkscrew-shaped cavatappi are Ms. Younger's favorite pasta for this dish, but any sturdy, stubby shape will work.
