Stilton And Walnut Welsh Rarebit Blue Cheese On Toast Recipes

STILTON RAREBIT

Steps:

• Pre-heat the grill to its highest setting and line either the grill pan or a baking tray with kitchen foil. Put the cheese into a mixing bowl. Use a fork to finely crumble the cheese, then stir in the egg, shallot, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and sage (plus the walnuts, if using). Now spread the cheese mixture thickly over the bruschettini, making sure you take the mixture to the edge or they will burn. Sprinkle with cayenne pepper. Then place the bruschettini on to the foil-lined grill pan or baking tray and grill for 2 minutes, until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Serve warm.

WELSH RAREBIT

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour. 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 beer and whisk to combine. Pour in cream and whisk until well combined and smooth. Gradually add cheese, stirring constantly, until cheese melts and sauce is smooth; this will take 4 to 5 minutes. Add hot sauce. Pour over toast and serve immediately.
