Cheesy Irish toast delight (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 oz butter (¼ stick)

02 - 3 Tbsp milk

03 - 8 oz Irish cheddar (like Kerrygold Dubliner or you can use another melty cheese)

04 - 1 tsp white vinegar

05 - 1 tsp English mustard (prepared, or substitute your favorite mustard, or omit)

06 - ⅛ tsp black pepper (freshly grated, to taste)

07 - 2 Tbsp gherkin (or cornichons, chopped)

08 - 4 slices bread (good quality, toasted)

# Instructions:

01 - Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat, then add the milk and grated cheese, stirring until the cheese melts and becomes smooth.

02 - Add the vinegar, mustard, black pepper and gherkins; stir to combine and remove from heat.

03 - Allow to cool slightly, stirring occasionally. Preheat the broiler (grill) then place the four pieces of toast on a baking sheet and divide the cheese mixture evenly between them.

04 - Place under the broiler, until bubbly and hot; place on plates and serve with gherkins/cornichons and salad, if desired.

# Notes:

01 - This is a twist on the classic Welsh Rarebit, using Irish cheddar.

02 - Herbed Havarti cheese can be substituted for a delicious variation.
