Rarebit was our family favorite for years. I simply forgot about it in the flurry of life until this past week. I opened one of my favorite cookbooks looking for some inspiration and found an easy recipe for cheese sauce. Knowing I had all the ingredients on hand, I was inspired to make rarebit once again! And all my picky eaters were delighted!
Hand's down this is the best go-to cookbook I've ever owned for solid, straight-forward, high-quality recipes. The editors test every ingredient and tool before writing the recipe, thus the name America's Test Kitchen. Excellent results every time. The flip side is that there isn't any fun flair or flavors so you have to add your own twists. Which I do, of course.
Rarebit is a dish served with savoury cheese sauce over other scrumptious hot food items. Our favorites are ham, english muffins, and eggs although other recipes call for different types of wheat breads or breakfast meats.
