Welsh Rabbit (Rarebit) - Sort of Toasted Cheese image

Nothing is more delicious that a well-made Welsh Rabbit, or 'rarebit'. It is easy to make but you do need to keep your eye on it! Have the toast made, and keep it warm, before you start cooking the cheese - which is best coarsely grated because it melts easily. From 'The Country Kitchen - Cheese And Biscuits' - Jean Hatfield.

Daddy's Welsh Rabbit (Rarebit) image

This was my father's recipe. With his coastal southern accent, it always sounded like he was saying "Welsh Rabbit." Only when I was older did I discover there was nothing rabbit about this rare bit!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 Tbsp butter
1 1/2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 can(s) (5 ounces) evaporated milk (or 2/3 cup beer or ale)
1 c grated extra sharp cheddar cheese (or more if desired)
1/2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp hot sauce (tabasco)
4 slice bread, toasted

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butter in medium skillet over medium-low heat. When melted, stir in flour and continue to stir until well mixed and foamy. Cook, stirring, about 1 minute.
  • 2. SLOWLY stir in milk (or beer) until a smooth sauce forms. Stir constantly so lumps break up and sauce smooths out.
  • 3. Stir in grated cheese, and continue to stir until cheese melts completely and is well-blended. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce.
  • 4. Reduce heat to warm; keep warm and stir cheese sauce occasionally while preparing toast.
  • 5. Thick sliced homemade bread works best, or use Texas Toast. Cut toasted bread into triangles. Arrange triangles on plate and top with about 1/2 cup or more cheese sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tsp English mustard powder
3 tbsp stout
30 gm (1 Oz) butter
Worcestershire sauce, to taste
175 gm (5.25 Oz) lancashire (Mild Cheddar) cheese, grated
2 egg yolks
2 slices bread (Firmer is better)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the mustard powder with a little stout in the bottom of a small pan to make a paste, then stir in the rest of the stout and add the butter and about 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce - you can always add more later if you like. Heat gently until the butter has melted. 2. Tip in the cheese and stir to melt, but do not let the mixture boil. Once smooth, taste for seasoning, then take off the heat and allow to cool until just slightly warm, being careful it doesn't solidify. 3. Pre-heat the grill to medium-high, and toast the bread on both sides. Beat the yolks into the warm cheese until smooth, and then spoon on to the toast and cook until bubbling and golden. Serve immediately.
