4 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, sliced
kosher salt
1 shallot, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons all- purpose flour
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons sherry
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 to 2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6- 7 gratings nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cayenne, optional
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika, optional
12 ounces macaroni, penne or cellentani
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 pound Comte, or a combination of these, grated
1/4 cup Parmesan- Reggiano cheese, grated, tossed with 2 tablespoons melted butter

1
Melt half the butter in a medium pan over medium heat and add the onions and a four-fingered pinch of salt.
2
Cook, stirring until the onions is nicely caramelized.
3
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the remaining butter.
4
Add the shallot and a three-finger pinch of salt and cook until some of the water has cooked out of the butter, about 1 minute.
5
Add the flour, stir to mix it with the butter, and cook until the mixture has taken on a toasted aroma, a few minutes.
6
Gradually whisk in the milk and stir with a flat-edged wood spoon or spatula, to make sure the flour doesnt stick to the bottom of the pan, until the sauce comes up to a simmer and thickens, a few minutes more.
7
Stir in a three-finger pinch of salt, the white wine vinegar, sherry, fish sauce, dry mustard, black pepper, nutmeg, cayenne, and smoked paprika (if using).
8
Add the onion to the sauce and stir until heated through.
9
Transfer the sauce to a blender and process until pureed, or puree in the pan with a hand blender.
10
Keep the sauce warm over low heat.
