BAKED BRIE WITH GRAPES
Brie baked in puff pastry (Brie en croute) is a cocktail party classic. The cheese comes out warm, easily spreadable and delicious. To make this appetizer even more festive, stuff it with fresh grapes - in season from California through January. The result is simply luscious, not overly sweet, the grapes still juicy, savoury with fresh herbs and colourful to boot. If you can, substitute French brie with a brie-like cheese from a local producer. Either way, the dish is easy to prepare and the results dependable and gratifying.

Steps:
- Place brie on a plate and freeze until very firm, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°. Cut off top rind of brie with a sharp knife (it's okay if you can't get the rind off in one piece; brie will smooth out as it bakes).
- Toss rosemary, thyme, and oil on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet until coated. Spread herbs evenly on parchment. Place brie in the center so that it covers about half of the herbs. Bake until cheese is melted, 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest to firm up slightly, about 5 minutes (if you skip this step, you risk spilling molten cheese all over your cutting board).
- Strip leaves from uncovered herbs and sprinkle over brie. Using parchment and a wide spatula, carefully slide brie and covered herbs onto a cutting board.
- Arrange mostarda, walnuts, pear slices, crackers, and baguette slices around cutting board; serve brie warm.
Tips:
- For the best results, use a ripe brie cheese. A ripe brie will be soft and creamy, with a slightly runny center.
- To make the herbed grapes, simply toss the grapes with olive oil, herbs, and salt and pepper. You can use any herbs you like, but rosemary, thyme, and sage are all good choices.
- If you don't have a ramekin, you can bake the brie in a small baking dish.
- Be careful not to overcook the brie. The cheese should be melted and gooey, but it shouldn't be runny.
- Serve the baked brie with crackers, bread, or fruit.
Conclusion:
Baked brie with herbed grapes is a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It's also a great way to use up leftover brie cheese. So next time you have a party or gathering, be sure to give this recipe a try.
