Instructions:

1. Place the pasta in a large skillet. Add the salt and enough cold water to just cover the pasta. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

2. Lower the heat to medium and continue cooking until most of the water is absorbed, about 6 minutes.

3. Add the evaporated milk and stir to combine. Raise the heat to high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

4. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cheese. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and has thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve warm.
