Ingredients
- French Baguette 1 piece

- Butter 5 oz
- Dark Ale 5 fl oz
- Milk 5 fl oz
- Mustard Greens 1 tablespoon
- Cheshire Cheese 5 oz
- Whole egg 2 pieces

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Slice the white baguette into thin pieces, spread butter on both sides of the slices, and place them in an oven preheated to 390°F for three to four minutes.
Step 2
In the meantime, prepare the sauce in a skillet. Sauté one tablespoon of all-purpose flour in butter, stirring constantly, until it turns a golden caramel color. This is how a thickening agent is made — the French call it "roux."
Step 3
Pour half a pint of dark beer or cider, along with 100 ml of milk, into the thickener and whisk it all together. Add a tablespoon of dry mustard, a pinch of ground black pepper, and grated cheddar cheese (which can be substituted with cheese curds). Let this mixture simmer gently over low heat for about a minute, then remove from the heat. Once the bubbling subsides, whisk in two egg yolks into the sauce.
Step 4
Remove the crispy slices of baguette from the oven, drizzle with sauce, and enjoy.
