Leftover cheese? Make a Stilton rarebit
Do you, like me, have a wedge of festive Stilton languishing in the fridge? This is a delicious way to use up cheese – a mixture of Stilton and mature cheddar works well, too, or use other hard cheeses such as Wensleydale in the mix. It all comes down to preference and what needs finishing up. Either way, serve with chutney, pickled onions and a glass of fine ale.
