SUNDAY MEMORIES
Judy Wills
Recently, Fred suggested I fix a meal that I haven’t done in quite a while – a recipe I got from his Mother all those years ago…Old Time Welsh Rarebit. Some people call this “Welsh Rabbit” – but I’ve never called it that, nor did she. Her handwriting has faded quite a bit, so I’m glad I transferred it to my computer.
Funny thing about this recipe – Fred thoroughly enjoys it, but it also contains mustard (although not very much of it ) and Worcestershire Sauce – another thing he doesn’t like to eat. However, since it all mixed in together, and dominated by cheese, he doesn’t mind those two things in it. As a matter of fact – it wouldn’t taste the same without those two condiments in the sauce. So all is good.
In making up this dish, it reminded me that there are quite a few other main dishes that I make, or have made in the past, that I didn’t put in this series. So this is one of those “other” main dishes I forgot to mention.
This is a good-tasting meal, and goes well with either a vegetable or salad. It does make quite a bit, so there is usually enough left over for at least one more meal – at least for just the two of us eating it.
