Date: Tue, 21 May 1996 15:50:40 -0700 (PDT) Prepare a medium-light white sauce (start with 1¼ 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 1-½ qt casserole. Pour sauce over top to cover and coat broccoli. Top with buttered crumbs (⅓ 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.
