WELSH RAREBIT
A classic English tavern snack, Welsh Rarebit is essentially a rich beer cheese fondue drizzled over toasted bread - it's cheesy comfort food at its simplest. The English have long enjoyed topping their toast with a wide range of tasty foodstuffs, and no dish captures this tradition better than the 18th century tavern nosh known as Welsh Rabbit, which, oddly enough, contains no rabbit whatsoever. The moniker was designed as a slight by the English, who created the dish, toward the Welsh, whom they considered shifty, shiftless, and usually broke. So broke, in fact, that they might actually call a piece of cheese a rabbit...which doesn't make a lick of sense. As for the "rarebit" variation, we can only assume it was devised in an effort to appease customers angered by the fact that there was no rabbit in their rabbit. Whatever you call it, I certainly would say that any dish that marries beer, cheese, and toast qualifies as good eats. When I make it, I prefer to do so right in front of the fire with my camp stove, which is basically a cast iron Dutch oven with little feet on it. If you don't have one of these, I"m sure you're going to get one. But until then, just make the sauce in a heavy saucepan over low heat. This recipe first appeared in Season 7 of Good Eats.

Steps:
- Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a small saucepan. Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes, being careful not to brown the flour.
- Whisk in mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper until smooth. Add the beer and whisk to combine. Pour in the cream and whisk until well combined and smooth. Gradually add the cheese, stirring constantly, until the cheese melts and sauce is smooth, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the hot sauce. Pour over toast and serve immediately.
REAL WELSH RAREBIT
A classic version of this dish was shared with me years ago. This is is my adaptation to more local ingredients. If you don't like beer, you can replace it with milk and it will still taste great. Serve over toasted bread or English muffins.

Steps:
- Chopped fresh chives, for sprinkling
- Put a skillet over low heat and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. Toast the bread in the skillet until the underside is golden brown, a couple of minutes. Turn the bread over, toast the other side, then remove from the skillet and keep warm.
- To make the sauce, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over low heat. Sprinkle in the flour and whisk together until combined. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the taste of the flour is cooked out, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the beer and milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps, and cook for an additional minute to thicken. Add the mustard, paprika, cayenne and Worcestershire sauce, then whisk some more. Add the cheese, whisking slowly, and cook until smooth, melted and very hot, a couple of minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the egg yolk.
- Lay a piece of toast on each plate, spoon the hot sauce over the toast and sprinkle with chopped chives.
TRADITIONAL WELSH RAREBIT
Brings back childhood memories of staying home with Mum and making these delicious cheese on toasts. The cheese sauce is also wonderful for topping fish or roasted veggies. Do use a heavy British or European beer.

WELSH RAREBIT BREAD
Makes 1 1/2lb loaf. Found this in my recipe book: Better Homes and Gardens Best Bread Machine Recipes. Looked for something savory to make this morning and its sooo good! I only had medium cheddar and can't wait to use sharp cheddar!! Went great for soaking up garlic butter pasta juices and doesn't even need mayo or cheese for a great ham sandwich!
