Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
10 ounces chopped broccoli -- cooked and drained
1 1/4 cups medium-light white sauce
1/4 can shredded cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon angostura bitters
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
Salt and pepper
1/3 cup buttered crumbs

Prepare a medium-light white sauce (start with 1 1/4 cup milk, 1 scant
teaspoon cornstarch, etc.). Stir in the cheese and let the heat of the
sauce melt it. Add bitters, nutmeg, salt and pepper.

Place cooked broccoli in a 1 to 1-1/2 qt casserole. Pour sauce over top to
cover and coat broccoli. Top with buttered crumbs (1/3 cup seasoned
(Italian) bread crumbs, 1 Tablespoon softened butter). Bake 350 degrees F
for about 20 minutes until bubbly.

Romanoff Variation - Add 1 tablespoon sour cream to the cheese sauce and
substitute Worchestershire sauce for the bitters. Omit crumbs and toss with
chopped, fresh parsley.
