As soon as the milk is warm, stir in one teaspoonful of flour mixed with two tablespoonfuls of cold water.

As the milk gets hotter, add slowly, so as to dissolve it, two ounces of cheese, grated or chipped fine.

Then add one ounce of butter, a teaspoonful of salt, a dash of Cayenne pepper, and one egg, well beaten and mixed with two tablespoonfuls of cold milk or water.

Let the mixture simmer five minutes, then serve hot on wheat bread or brown-bread toast, well browned and buttered..
