Today has brought more storms to the California Bay Area. We’ve had thunder, lightening, hail, and even flooding sidewalks. On days like this it’s always nice to stay cozy inside and wait out the storm.
I made a small, late lunch this rainy day of fake welsh rarebit. Real welsh rarebit requires making a sauce that includes beer and mustard and doesn’t include an egg. That’s why this is easy and fake!
Poach an egg, and while it’s poaching, toast some bread (rye bread is really good for this) and grate some cheese. Once the egg is poached and the bread is toasted, turn on your broiler and place the toast on a piece of foil. Put the egg on the toast, sprinkle the shredded cheese over both, and add a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce (and Tabasco if you want). Put under the broiler until the cheese is melted. Then eat!

That sounds delish! And easy! Yummy!
I don’t think I could do it with a mustard sauce – but the beer sounds promising!
I think I’m going to have to try this…
