Recipe Review
Peckish Sister from Central, FL
This was a great disappointment and the only dish I have cooked from this book that has been returned to me by my hungry teenage boys as being completely inedible (I had to agree). I have not made Rarebit since an unfortunate cooking class in high school. The ingredients that attracted me to this recipe were the mustard powder and fresh horseradish. I had good luck with the Nachos cheese sauce that also called for 12 ounces of beer. But this sauce (served over micro waved golden potatoes and steamed asparagus-recipe suggestions) was very bitter and this bitter beer flavor was greatly accentuated by the mustard and horseradish. As the Nacho cheese sauce suggested the addition of 1 to 2 tsp of sugar to alleviate any bitterness, I tried this and the result was a sweet and bitter cheese sauce. I will not try Rarebit again!
