I'd like to receive tips & recipes from Anosmic Kitchen.
- Get it into the oven either in a dish with low sides or on any oven safe dish with baking paper underneath the cheese so that you can use the baking paper to lift it out from the dish. If you use a an oven safe tray without the baking paper make sure you will be able to scoop the melted cheese without burning on the sides of the dish.
It needs 20 minutes to bake but every oven is different so keep a watch over it two reasons;
- You want it baked till it's soft or it's not going to give you any melt and what's the point of baked brie with no melted falling over cheese?
- Don't over-bake it! Yes I know you can hardly believe that's a thing but I know because I did. You put in the oven and clean forget, mindlessly yes but still, forgotten brie!
What happens to forgotten brie in the oven? It gives you more melted cheese than you hoped for! So a shapeless brie cheese.
