BAKED MACARONI AND GOUDA image

Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb macaroni
1 1/2 lbs uncooked sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
carmelized onions
1 quart milk
6 tbsp unsalted butter
6 tbsp flour
3/4 lb gouda cheese, grated (about 4 cups)
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350F. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente, about 11 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, heat a large, heavy bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and wipe the sausage pan clean. 3. Add the pasta and 1 cup carmelized onions to the sausage and stir to combine. In a medium saucepan or a microwave oven, heat the milk until steaming. 4. Return the large saucepan to the stove, add the butter and melt over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for 3 minutes. Whisk in the hot milk, 1/4 cup at a time, and continue whisking until the sauce is smooth and thick and comes to a simmer. Add 2 1/2 cups cheese, remove from the heat and whisk until the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add the cheese sauce to the pasta mixture and stir to combine. 5. Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish and add the pasta mixture in an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup carmelized onions and 1 1/2 cups cheese on top. Bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
