National Welsh Rarebit Day 2019

Welsh Rarebit    

When I was a kid my mom would make us Welsh Rarebit. It was quite a meal and we ate it with great relish over either bread and sometimes dipped crackers into it.

I couldn't get enough of it there for a while. It was the only redeeming aspect of my life in that misery which was Goose Creek, South Carolina and those mean navy chidren of the denizens of that hell hole.

Today is National Welsh Rarebit Day.

Welsh rarebit is a savory traditional Welsh dish.

It consists of a melted cheese sauce with other ingredients which vary depending on the palate of the preparer.

It is served hot over slices of toasted bread and is frequently served as fondue.

The name of the dish translates to "Welsh rabbit" and it originates in Great Britain from about the 18th century.
