Welsh Rarebit

I got to thinking about this dish recently. I've never tried it but it sounds like a good snack to add to my rotation. This is the recipe I'm going from. I've edited a bit. Fergus Henderson would seem like the ideal source and the setup checks all my main boxes. I also like the way this recipe describes cooking a roux until it smells 'biscuity'. Bout to make this my lunch.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp of butter
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • 1 tsp English mustard powder
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • 200ml Guinness
  • A splash of Worcestershire sauce
  • 450g mature strong Cheddar cheese, grated
  • 4 pieces of toast

Directions

  1. Melt butter and stir in the flour. Cook gently until it smells and looks biscuity.
  2. Add the mustard powder and cayenne. Stir in the stout and Worcestershire sauce. Gently melt in the cheese.
  3. Stir until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to set.
  4. Spread on toast and place under a broiler. Serve when bubbling golden brown.


bon appetit
