How to Serve Double Cream Brie
Brie is a soft cheese with a thick, edible rind, and is often sold in wheels. Double cream refers to the exceptional richness from extra cream used in the recipe to achieve a minimum of 60 percent fat. This differs from triple cream Brie cheese with 75 percent fat. To fully appreciate the flavor of the cheese, warm it wrapped in pastry. The pastry bakes to a golden brown and holds the softened cheese inside.
