Welsh Rarebit


 I am really dating myself here. When we were in Highschool we had a class called Home Economics. This picture looks just like our classroom .This is where we were taught to cook, set a table, sew, and manage a home. I remember Mrs. Karpook as my teacher. I learned so much from her class. Here is one of the recipes she demonstrated and then we had to make it ourselves. I remember thinking it was such a yummy dish as I had never had this at home.

2 Cups of shredded sharp process American cheese

3/4 cup of milk

1 teaspoon dry mustard

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Dash cayenne pepper

1 well-beaten egg

In a heavy saucepan, heat cheese and milk over a very low heat, stirring constantly until the cheese melts and sauce is smooth. Add next 3 ingredients. Stir in small amount of hot mixture into egg; ( tempering the egg) return to hot mixture. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture has thickened and is creamy.

Serve at once over hot toast points with broiled tomato slices.
