  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a heavy large pot over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the pancetta and saute until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes.
  5. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a small bowl.
  6. Pour off all but 1/4 cup of the pan drippings (if necessary, add more oil to the pan drippings to equal 1/4 cup total).

  9. Add the flour and whisk for 2 minutes.
  10. Gradually whisk in the milk.

  12. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, whisking often, about 5 minutes.
  13. Gradually whisk in all the Fontina, mozzarella, Parmesan, and provolone cheeses.
  14. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  15. Add the rigatoni and cook until almost al dente, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. (The pasta will continue cooking in the oven.).
  16. Drain pasta and add directly into the cheese.
  17. Add the parsley, basil, and pancetta and toss to coat.
  18. Season the pasta mixture, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  19. Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared dish.
  20. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat.
