Product Information

Flash Freeze: Place a freezer-safe bag onto a baking sheet. Insert your brie slices into the freezer-safe bag and make sure they are not touching one another. Squeeze out as much air as possible. Place into the freezer and freeze until solid. Have I mentioned how much I love cheese? Cheese is my comfort food, nothing cures heartachelike melted gooey cheese. Or on a less dramatic note 😉 nothing cures that 'I am having a bad day feeling' better than melted gooey cheese. Honestly. Cheese on toast or a toasted cheese sandwich can cure almost anything! Especially if someone else makes it. If that someone else is your bestie whilst you put your pj's on and open a bottle of wine.....well really the world has already righted itself. This is a viable option for brie to be used in recipes such as baked goods, stews and soups. Other than taking a few more minutes to cook, this is a great option. While this is the slowest method, it tends to yield the best results. Place your brie in a bowl and then into the fridge to defrost slowly overnight. Of course, what better to pair with Brie than more cheese? Having multiple cheeses to choose from will thrill your guests. For aesthetic purposes, we recommend having an odd number of cheeses on a cheese plate. Arranging them according to flavor, from mildest to strongest will ensure a fantastic taste experience. For instance, try starting with Président Brie for its creamy texture, building to nutty Président Don Bernardo Manchego, and finishing the journey with delectable Président Le Bleu.

Like many dairy and cheese products, brie is not something you will want to refreeze, ever. You will degrade the flavour and completely ruin the texture rendering it thoroughly unenjoyable. With the holiday season fast approaching, entertainers are hard-pressed to think of unique small bites to safely bring people together. This recipe for Fondue Ricotta Brie is such a fun, untraditional way to enjoy Brie cheese. Brie is melted completely with Ricotta for a velvety rich fondue, add in some crispy prosciutto and garnish with sliced almonds, red pepper flakes and parsley for additional flavor and texture – your guests won’t be able to stop talking about it. If you prefer red wine, serve Brie with a mild Syrah or red blend to introduce some jammy flavors. Brie plays just as well with darker blends. Pop open a bottle of Pinot Noir to pull out Brie’s earthiness. This old-world wine can match this cheese’s flavor without overpowering it. Another option is a playful, tart Beaujolais to pull out the tangy flavors of Brie and downplay its creaminess.

The Brie Basics

Whenever I have stale bread I make breadcrumbs and pop them in the freezer, that way I always have them to hand. If I have run out I put a few slices of bread into the toaster and just heat them through until the outside is crispy but not coloured. Then they can be left to cool and wizzed in a food processor. I have tried this with panko breadcrumbs but they don't seal the brie enough and you lose cheese. I haven't tried it with shop bought breadcrumbs as I never have those in the house. But I am guessing they would work reasonably well. I was first given this recipe by my Stepmother. She told me the recipe down the phone so I don't have the original source. I wish I could claim this as my own, as truly I would go down as the greatest cheese recipe writer ever. But sadly it is not, so I will continue to thank the unknown genius that created this.

Centuries ago, Brie was given as tribute to French Kings. It’s easy to taste why, especially when you know how to eat Brie. Don't be worried by the rind of your brie. Once these are cooked you won't notice it. But don't cut it off or the brie will just oozes out of your crumb and you'll be left using chunks of bread to scrapethe pan out.If you’re looking to go a sweeter route, try cooking Brie with fruit. Caramelized plums and Baked Brie or Apple and Brie Crostatas are sure to give you all the warm and fuzzy feelings as the colder weather sets in. Featuring Brie on a dessert cheese board or a more customizable baked Brie? Adding jam and fruit preserves is the easiest way to infuse a little sweetness in your Brie dish. Notably, France’s most famous cheese is Brie. Originating from the region of Le Brie, about 1-hour east of Paris, this creamy and buttery cheese was often gifted as a tribute to French royalty. The “Queen of Cheeses” has remained a staple at parties and get-togethers throughout history. Instead, as discussed above, we would highly recommend freezing brie in suitable portions so you can easily defrost a portion at a time. Does Brie Freeze Well?

Brie is ready to serve when it’s ripe: the outside will be firm, while the inside will be slightly bouncy and resilient. Underripe Brie can be stiff to the touch, while overripe Brie may be creamier and almost runny. Although known for its classic status on the cheese board, Brie is also incredibly versatile to cook with. Brie is best served at room temperature or warmer, making it great to bake for dessert, grilled for a smoky appetizer or even pressed for panini sandwiches. Sandwiches & Wraps We’ve touched on the creamy texture and buttery flavor of Brie throughout this guide, so it’s no doubt that this cheese is absolutely delicious with proteins. In fact, you can think of adding Brie to your meat entrée almost like incorporating butter. Brie’s mildness is an ideal canvas for the smoky, salty and savory flavor profile of meats and smoked fish. The creamy texture holds the marinades while complementing the meats’ briny texture for a delicate yet complicated combination.A lunchtime staple with endless combinations, yet we often revert to tried and true sandwich recipes. If you’re finding yourself in a bit of a rut, try elevating your sandwich with Brie cheese. Combine Président Brie, caramelized onions and apricot preserves, and then press in a panini press for a warm, gooey Brie meal. You can find the full recipe here.
