Stilton And Walnut Welsh Rarebit - Blue Cheese On Toast
- 8 ounces Stilton cheese or 8 ounces blue cheese
- 3 tablespoons cream or 3 tablespoons creme fraiche
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon English mustard or 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 ounces walnut pieces
- 8 slices bread
- 2 ounces butter
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- black pepper
- salt (optional)
- Pre-heat the grill the the highest setting and line a grill pan with kitchen foil.
- Put the cheese into a mixing bowl and mash with a fork.
- Add the cream or creme fraiche, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, black pepper, salt, (optional as the cheese is already quite salty) & the walnut pieces.
- Mix well & set aside.
- Place all the slices of bread on to the lined grill pan and toast until just golden brown.
- Take out and spread the UNTOASTED side with butter.
- Spread the cheese mixture over the top ensuring it is spread to the edges, otherwise they will burn!
- Sprinkle with the Cayenne pepper.
- Place under the grill and grill for about 2-4 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbling & tinged with brown.
- Serve 2 slices per person with a crisp seasonal salad and a good glass or two of Red wine!
- The ultimate supper dish!
- If you wish to serve these as aperitif nibbles, stamp out rounds from the slices of bread and continue to assemble & grill as above. Serves about 8 people that way.
