Ingredients
- Unsalted butter, softened, for baking dish
- 1 red bell pepper
- 8 ounces elbow macaroni (2 cups)
- Kosher salt
- 11 ounces extra-sharp cheddar, 5 ounces cut into 1/2-inch cubes (1 1/2 cups), 6 ounces coarsely grated (1 3/4 cups)
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup grated onion (from 1)
- 1 cup half and half
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Generously brush a 2 1/2-to-3-quart baking dish with butter. Char red pepper over a gas flame on high (or, if you don’t have a gas stove, on a rimmed baking sheet directly under the broiler) until blackened all over, 6 to 8 minutes.
Transfer peppers to a bowl; cover with plastic wrap and let stand 10 minutes. Rub charred skin with a paper towel to remove. Peel, seed, and stem pepper, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
Cook macaroni in a pot of generously salted boiling water until al dente, about 2 minutes less than package instructions. Drain well; transfer to prepared baking dish. Mix in cubed cheese and 1/2 cup roasted red pepper (reserve remainder for another use).
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, mustard, cayenne, and nutmeg. Whisk in sour cream and eggs until smooth, then onion, half and half, cream, and Worcestershire until thoroughly combined. Pour over macaroni mixture; gently shake dish to blend. Sprinkle grated cheese evenly over top.
Bake until set around edges but still loose in center, 25 to 30 minutes (do not overbake; mixture will continue setting as it cools). Let cool on a wire rack until set but still warm, 10 to 20 minutes. Serve.
