How have we missed this!? Today Wilf Chumbly introduces us to the magic that is Cheese Toast. We debate wearing barrister wigs, the merits of LARPing and where the word "rarebit" comes from all while avoiding the dreaded burnt edges. Gooey Cheese Toasts with Mustard and Cayenne - from Tasting Hygge by Leela Cyd 2 large slices of 1-inch thick whole-grain or sourdough bread 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 1/2 cup beer (I love Guinness for its maltiness) 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese 1 teaspoon mustard powder (Colman's is my favorite) 3 dashes Worcestershire sauce Pinch of cayenne pepper Pinch of salt Optional Toppings Fried egg Fresh sage, roughly chopped Pickled onions Mango chutney Grainy mustard Thickly sliced heirloom tomato Seared broccoli Salad of butter lettuce and tangy dressing Toast the bread until dark golden brown and set aside. Melt the butter in a small saucepan on medium heat. Then add the flour and whisk to combine. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the mixture begins to smell toasty. Add the beer and cook for 1 more minute. Add the cheese, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne, and a pinch of salt and cook on medium-high heat for another 4-5 minutes, until bubble and thick. When the cheese sauce is ready, preheat the broiler and place the toasts on a cookie sheet. Generously spoon the cheese sauce all over each piece of toast. It's okay if some spills off. Douse the toasts a second time to make sure they are very saturated with cheese sauce. Depending on how absorbent the bread is, you may have a little cheese sauce left over. Broil for about 5 minutes, until the cheese sauce begins to brown in spots and look golden all over. Serve immediately with assorted toppings.

Welcome to The Danger Zone! Neither wind nor downed telephone poles nor minor illnesses will prevent us from bringing you some Molly bait, aka Rotisserie Chicken. Hop on the train of discussion as we learn the real definition of vegetarianism and remind Molly that this is, indeed, a comedy show. GREEN CHILE CHICKEN CHILAQUILES Okay, maybe Matthew said enchiladas on the show, but actually he’s more likely to use rotisserie chicken for these chilaquiles, which are awesome. 1 tablespoon vegetable oil ½ large onion, diced 1 cup chicken broth ¼ cup heavy cream ½ cup green salsa 1 cup shredded chicken A bunch of tortilla chips (maybe ⅔ of a 1-pound bag) 3 fried eggs Heat oil in Dutch oven or other large pot over medium-high. Add the onions and cook until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir chicken broth, cream, and salsa, bring to a vigorous simmer, and cook until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken, then the chips, breaking up the chips slightly with a spoon, stirring up from the bottom, and adding chips until they’re nicely coated. Serve on heated plates, topped with a fried egg.
