Nippy cocktail-size Welsh rarebits topped with sweet-and-sour pickles are an innovative play on a traditional favourite.
Ingredients
- 30 (1/2 inch/1 cm thick) baguette slices, toasted
- Topping:
- 1 cup extra-old white cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup light cream cheese
- 2 tbsp beer or cider
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp green onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp sweet red peppers, finely diced
- 1/4 cup sweet mixed pickles or bread-and-butter pickles, thinly sliced
Preparation
Topping: In food processor, purée together Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, beer, egg yolk and Worcestershire sauce until smooth. Scrape into bowl; stir in onions and red pepper. Spread heaping teaspoonful (5 mL) over each toast. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.)
Broil just until cheese is melted and golden, about 2 minutes. Top each with pickle slice.
