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.

WELSH RABBIT (RAREBIT) - SORT OF TOASTED CHEESE



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.

Categories     Tomato     Cheddar     Fall     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2/3 cup beer (not dark)
a 13 1/2- to 14 1/2-ounce can tomatoes, drained in a sieve, chopped, and drained again well
10 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated coarse
1/2 teaspoon English-style dry mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco, or to taste
eighteen 1-inch slices of Italian bread or 12 English muffin halves, toasted
flat-leafed parsley sprigs for garnish
bacon as an accompaniment if desired

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the butter and the flour and cook the roux over low heat, stirring, for 3 minutes. Whisk in the beer and the tomatoes and boil the mixture, whisking, for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to moderately low, stir in the Cheddar, the mustard, the Worcestershire sauce, and the Tabasco, and cook the mixture, stirring, until it is hot (but do not let it boil). Arrange 3 of the toasts or 2 of the muffin halves on each of 6 plates and spoon the Cheddar mixture on top. Garnish the Welsh rabbit with the parsley and serve it with the bacon.

Tips:

  • For a creamier Welsh rabbit, use a combination of cheddar and Gruyère cheeses.
  • To make a vegetarian version of Welsh rabbit, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • For a gluten-free version of Welsh rabbit, use gluten-free bread.
  • To make a Welsh rabbit with a kick, add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard or horseradish sauce.
  • To make a Welsh rabbit with a smoky flavor, add a teaspoon of smoked paprika.
  • Serve Welsh rabbit with a side of crusty bread, crackers, or vegetables.
  • For the rarebit, use a sharp cheddar cheese for a more pronounced flavor.
  • If you don't have Worcestershire sauce, you can substitute soy sauce or fish sauce.
  • For the tomato sandwiches, use ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best flavor.
  • Season the tomato sandwiches with salt and pepper to taste.
  • For a more substantial sandwich, add a layer of ham or bacon.

Conclusion:

Welsh rabbit, rarebit, and tomato sandwiches are all delicious and easy-to-make dishes that are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner.
