Ingredients for Welsh Rarebit

Method

Directions for Welsh Rarebit on Sourdough Toast

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sourdough Toast

    Begin by toasting the sourdough bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy. This will provide a sturdy base for the Welsh rarebit topping.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheese Mixture

    In a saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the shredded cheddar cheese, milk, mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, beer, and a pinch of nutmeg. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Season the Mixture

    Taste the cheese mixture and add black pepper to your liking. Adjust the seasoning as necessary.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the cheese mixture is ready, spoon it generously over the toasted sourdough slices, ensuring to cover them well.

  5. 5

    Broil the Rarebit

    Place the assembled toast under a broiler for about 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the Welsh rarebit from the broiler, garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately while hot.
