JOURNALING: Stouffer's Foods used to sell Welsh Rarebit cheese sauce that I really liked. Unfortunately, they stopped selling it in 2021. Just recently I found this copy-cat recipe from the Wimpy Vegetarian website and decided to try it. I'm glad I did - yummy! I like it served overe toast topped with chopped broccoli and bacon - delish! 11/14/24

Whisk in ale, then mustard, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, cheese and cayenne. Simmer over medium-low heat while whisking until a smooth sauce develops (2-3 minutes). Remove from heat.
