Cheese Dishes (Hot toasted bread or if this)

on hot toasted bread or, if this is not at hand, crisp crackers form a good substitute.

WELSH RAREBIT (with Eggs) -Ingredients: One cup of grated cheese; one egg (yolk only); one-fourth cup of milk; salt and pepper to taste. Prepare the toast the same as in the preceding recipe. Place the milk in a porcelain-lined saucepan, and when hot, put in the cheese, and stir continually until the latter is melted. Add the salt, pepper and the beaten yolk, stir but a moment, and pour the liquid over the toast.

WELSH RAREBIT (with Ale) - This is the way a rarebit is generally prepared in England: One pound of cheese; one-half tablespoon of butter; one wine-glass of ale. Put the butter and ale in a porcelain-lined saucepan, and when hot, stir in the cheese cut into dice. Stir and cook until all are blended to a smooth paste. Prepare the toast as above, pour this mixture over it, and serve very hot.
