A delicious appetizer that withstands the test of time. From the Wisconsin Dutch chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Institute of Chicago, 1947.
Ingredients:
12 slices bread
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 lb cheese
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, separated
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler.
2. Cut 2 inch rounds from the bread slices and toast under the broiler until golden, one side only (take care as it scorches easily).
3. Spread with butter on the untoasted side.
4. Lightly beat the egg yolk and whip the white to stiff peaks.
5. Mix cheese, baking powder, salt and beaten egg yolk; fold in egg white.
6. Spread mixture thickly on buttered side of bread; place on cookie sheet close together.
7. Place under preheated broiler until puffed and light brown.
