Rabbit (rare-Bit), Scotch

Take as many slices as will be required of good Stilton, Gloucester, or Cheddar cheese, and if the cheese is not very rich add a little fresh butter or salad-oil. Grate the cheese, and put it into a cheese-toaster with a spoonful of made mustard, a pinch of cayenne, and a small glassful of good porter or ale. Stir the mixture until the cheese is dissolved, turn it out on a dish under which is a tin of boiling water, and serve very hot, with hot toast either dry or buttered. To prepare this dish properly, a cheese-toaster containing a reservoir for hot water should be used. When this is not at hand the cheese may be dissolved in a saucepan. Time, a few minutes.
