The Editor. I ' . WHETHER you entertain your in laws or dispense hospitality to the neighborhood bridge club, Amer ica’s famous cheeses offer a happy solution for popular party menus that won’t unbalance the family food budget. A Cheese Rarebit, for example, is ! a savory party treat that has unl i versal appetite appeal. A rarebit is i a' special boon to the budget, too, I because it provides satisfying nour | ishment and calls for only a pound ' of grated American cheese, one cup | of beer or milk and 2 egg yolks as 1 the main ingredients for six gener , ous servings. When you use beer, ; be sure to open the container about 15 minutes before adding to other ingredients, as always when beer is used in cooking. Whether you use a chafing dish or a double boiler, be sure to let the cheese mixture come ( to a boil slowly and remove immedi ately from the fire. I Or take your cue from the French chefs and use a savory cheese sauce to give extra appetite appeal and nourishment to a main course of fish, eggs or a vegetable. For the hostess who’s making the best of cramped living quarters, a / "help yourself" cheese buffet may ■ be the easiest solution of the hospi tality. A tray of assorted cheeses or cocktail spreads, pumpernickel : bread and crackers, relishes and * » beer, milk or fruit juice provide th« makings for party fare that will satisfy man sized appetites.
