Gloucester Cheese and Ale image

From The Dairy Bok of British Food. "Food and drink are combined for a filling snack that was originally served - with more ale to wash it down - after the meat or poultry course of the evening meal at posting houses and inns. Double Gloucester cheese has a stronger flavor than Single Gloucester which is also just as difficlut to track down in the shops". If you can't get Gloucester cheese, use a medium cheddar that is a bit crumbly.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 ounces double Gloucester cheese, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon prepared English mustard
4 1/2 ounces brown ale
4 slices whole wheat bread

Steps:

  • Arrange the cheese slices in the bottom of a large ovenproof dish, and spread the mustard over the top of them.
  • Pour in enough brown ale to just cover the cheese. Cover with foil, then bake at 375 Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes, until the cheese has softened.
  • Meanwhile, toast the bread. Pour the warm ale and cheese over the toast and serve immediately.
