To make the rarebit
- Place the ale, mustard and Worcestershire sauce into a saucepan and place over medium heat and reduce until thick. - Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat and add the flour to make a roux. Use a wooden spoon to continuously stir the roux for a few minutes so as to cook out the flour before gradually adding the hot milk to the pan in two to three batches, stirring constantly as you do so. - Once all the milk is incorporated into the roux add the cheese to the pan and beat and cook until smooth. - Remove from the heat and add the ale reduction to the sauce. Mix together well and check the seasoning. - Allow the mix to cool slightly before beating in the egg yolks.
To make the pizza
- Open a New York style dough ball and top with a few generous spoonfuls of the rarebit. - Use the back of the spoon to spread the rarebit all over the base before launching the pizza into a 350oC/660oF Roccbox and baking for around 4 minutes, rotating regularly. - Once baked, transfer to a chopping board, sprinkle over a little flaky salt and enjoy!
