Some foods I never get bored of. Blue steak and homemade bearnaise sauce is one thing, baked camembert another. And these two things are usually served on a Friday in my house, as they provide instant comfort after a work week.
Last Friday we served the baked camembert oozing from the oven, together with some nice bread, charkuteries (Hungarian chorizo; chorizo, saucisson; Milano salami), cream cheese stuffed pickled baby peppers it was a fabulous supper although quite modest.
To make camembert is oh so simple, but just in case you have forgotten, let’s take it again!
Baked camembert, serves 2-4 depending on the spread
1 whole camembert, I normally buy the brand Le Rustique
bread for serving
also cornichons, pear wedges etc. works well with the cheese
Heat up the oven to 200C. Remove the packaging from the cheese. If it comes in a wooden case however, place it back in it. Otherwise place the whole cheese in a small ovenproof dish. Cut some wholes on the top of the cheese before placing in the oven. Bake until warmed through and runny, 20 mins approx. Serve immediately with bread and dip into the cheese like a fondue.
Love these cream cheese stuffed pickled peppers, looks yummy 🙂
We had the same things for dinner this friday! Except for the peppers. And the fact that we had a huge mountain of different kinds of salami. I don’t remember the last time we had baked camembert. Must have it very soon again! We also rub the surface with garlic, and pour a tablespoon of white wine on toip of it, before cooking it.
