Macaroni and Cheese

This is a fairly grown-up version of the classic

1 box pasta
1-1/2 Tbs butter
1-1/2 Tbs flour
2 c milk
1 tsp dry mustard
splash Worcestershire sauce
splash Tabasco or similar hot sauce
2 c (or more) grated extra sharp cheddar cheese

Cook and drain pasta according to directions.

Meanwhile, make a roux with butter and flour. To make roux, melt butter until just bubbling, and add flour to make a paste. Add milk when roux is dark and fragrant, and stir to thicken. Add mustard, Worcestershire, and Tabasco. Mix well. Add cheese and stir until totally melted.

Put pasta in a casserole dish, pour cheese over top, turn over to mix well. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, or until the edges are brown and crispy.
