« Make Your Own Creme Fraiche | Main | Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Darn Good Chowder at Hog Island Oyster Co. »
Welsh rarebit (or Welsh rabbit) is something I've always wanted to make, but I guess it was never a priority until I saw Alton Brown making it on Good Eats. This is seriously delicious and so simple to make. The best way to describe it is like a cheddar cheese fondue with the consistency of nacho cheese--at least the way I made it--on top of toast.
