Grate the cheddar, cube the butter, and get the bread slices ready.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, add the flour, and whisk for 1 minute to make a roux; pour in the milk in a thin stream and smooth it without lumps.
Add mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne to the sauce and cook for 1 more minute; remove from the heat and stir in the cheddar and egg yolk until smooth and creamy.
Dry-toast the bread slices in a wide pan or toaster over medium heat for 2 minutes.
Spread a thick layer of rarebit sauce over the toasted bread, place under a 200°C broiler, and cook for 3 minutes until the sauce bubbles and turns golden.
Serve hot, sprinkling extra cayenne on top and balancing it with pickles or tomatoes.
💡 Tip: Add the cheddar at the last moment; long boiling can make the fat separate. Do not skip the Worcestershire sauce, since it gives rarebit its signature depth and mustard alone cannot provide that flavor.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Plate the toast straight from the grill, add finely chopped green onion or a few extra drops of Worcestershire on top, and serve with pickles or tomato slices.
