Brie is a soft cow's milk cheese manufactured in France. Originally, it was made in and named after the French region of Brie, which is common day Seine-et-Marne. This double cream Brie comes in a compact one pound wheel, perfect for ent best part of the cheese. Brie is usually only aged for a few weeks, any longer and it becomes Brie Noir, a drier and crumblier cheese. Although Brie is a delight spread on crackers, or on one's fingers, for a presentation that is sure to wow, try wrapping the full wheel in puff pastry and baking until the Brie is melted and the pastry is golden brown and puffed. Cutting into the center will be met with gasping friends and salivating mouths.
