What is the difference between Welsh rarebit and cheese on toast?
Welsh rarebit is made with a cheese-based sauce that is slathered on toasted bread and grilled until it’s bubbly and oozing. Cheese on toast is a simpler alternative which is toasted bread topped with slices of cheese and then grilled.
The cheese sauce for Welsh rarebit is usually made from cheese, flour, butter, and in this recipe, Guinness which gives it a deeper, richer flavour.
Do you put eggs in Welsh rarebit?
The traditional recipe for Welsh rarebit included eggs. But this vegan Welsh rarebit recipe is egg-free and still equally delicious.
