Brie Cheese
With a rich, creamy flavor; soft, spreadable consistency, and melt-in-your-mouth texture, Brie is an incredibly versatile cheese that you'll love to serve at parties. Luxurious, yet mild, with a thick white rind, this cow's milk cheese complements main courses just as well as it accompanies desserts.
From the traditional white, edible rind to the buttery flavor, our Market District® Brie — soft-ripened and made of double crème — is an expertly crafted cheese. Double crème, or plain Brie, offers a mild, buttery flavor with a creamy texture. Our artisans create several flavors of Brie, sold in wedges and wheels, including Traditional Brie, Brie with Herbs, Brie with Pepper, Brie with Camembert, and Light Brie.
Try some of these foodie tips, and wow your guests with Market District® Brie:
- Combine Brie with herbs to enhance a savory dip, or add polish to a sandwich plate.
- For an elegant snack, pair plain, double crème Brie with any type of fruit.
- For a quick dip to serve with crackers, spread apple butter on top of a wheel of plain Brie and wrap it in puff pastry dough. Brush the dough with an egg wash and bake until golden brown.
- Make simple raspberry compote (a cup of raspberries and a half-cup of sugar), drizzle over the wheel of Brie, and serve with crusty bread.
- Create a cheese board with Brie at the center. Include all your favorite cheeses, and fruits such as apples, pears, and grapes. Encourage guests to dip their fruit into the cheese — the fruit-cheese combination is a taste delight.
- Cover Market District® Brie with dried fruits such as apricots or figs, and savory nuts such as almonds. Wrap the covered cheese in puff pastry, brush the dough with an egg wash, and bake until golden brown. Serve with crackers and apple slices.
