From an old book: a historical recipe, not current advice. Its methods, additives and storage may be unsafe by today's standards.

Belgium. Associated with Belgium by the book is about Belgian cookery (Cooking, Belgian); the recipe itself names no place (confidence 0.4). "Associated with" means only that the evidence named here links this recipe to that place. A recipe isn't labelled as representing an entire country because a source associates it with one, and regional origins are kept where the source gives them.

Method

  1. Make some toasted bread, either cut in rounds or in squares, and butter them.
  2. Cut some slices of salt beef, or, better still, ham, and put them on top;
  3. spread the meat with a good layer of grated cheese, and over that place another piece of buttered toast of corresponding shape.
  4. Melt some butter in a small saucepan and fry the rounds till they are golden-brown.
