Grill the pepper under the broiler or over an open flame. Turn it frequently, until it appears blistered and blackened on all sides - about 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a light bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let sit for 20 minutes.
Once cooled, peel off the skin with a knife. Slit the pepper down on one side and remove the stem and the seeds. Finely chop the pepper and set aside.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat an 8-cup soufflé dish or casserole with butter- the dish should be at least 4 inches deep. Dust the dish with breadcrumbs and shake out any excess. Set aside.
Simmer the milk, garlic and bay leaf over medium heat.
In a small pot, simmer the milk, garlic and bay leaf over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low
In another pot, melt the remaining 4 tbsp. butter and whisk in the flour. Cook for 3 minutes. Now is the time to remove the garlic and bay leaf from the first pot, and pour the milk into your current pot.
Cook for 5 minutes or until the mixture begins to thicken and boil. Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper.
Pour 1 cup of the mixture into a bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks. Once whisked, pour the contents of the bowl back into the pot, and whisk everything again.
Stir in the cheese until it has melted and pour the entire pot into the now-empty bowl. Add the scallions, dill and reserved red pepper and mix well.
Beat the egg whites. Use a spatula and add one-third of the egg whites into the cheese mixture, folding in the remaining whites. Pour into a prepared baking dish.
Bake for 30 minutes. Then check the oven- the soufflé should be golden brown and 3 inches tall. You can bake more if needed, but not over 45 minutes.
