   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.
