Malkin commented about cheese goo:
<<< hmn ... mine was ... different
fine-shredded a sharp cheddar, mixed with eggs and fresh chopped herbs,
though I do not recall which herbs.
sliced baguettes, buttered one side, spread the other side with the
cheese
and egg mixture and grilled it as one would an open-faced grilled cheese
sandwich.
served at a tea some many many years ago.
no idea where I got the idea from but it went over well
may have called it Cheese on Toast >>>
This certainly doesn't seem anything like Digby's Savory Tosted
Cheese, alias cheese goo at least when using Master Cariadoc's
redaction. And I've seen quite a wide variety of interpretations,
even when they were all based on Digby's recipe. My barony held a
contest on just this thing last year, redactions of Digby's recipe,
which were *not* taken from Cariadoc's redaction.
There are also other medieval recipes that are similar, but not from
Digby. You can find two, I think, in the cheese-goo-msg Florilegium
file that has already been mentioned. (Thanks, Adamantius).
You might also find the recipes and comments in this file of interest:
