I us...It made me hungry and I just finished a meal. I used to love Welsh rarebit. It is said that it was called Welsh rabbit because the Welsh were so poor they couldn't even afford a meal of rabbit so made do with melted cheese. Others say it is a tasty dish so entitled to be called rarebit. There are probably other explanations of the name. Never saw that rarebit maker-- cheese toaster-- with the water under it before. We have made ours in double boilers -- which is the same thing, or fondue pots. The rarebit made with good cheese and wine is out of this world. Cheddar cheese soup in a can just can't meet it.<br />Regencyresearcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10828749339318882968noreply@blogger.com
