Tips:
- When selecting brie, choose one that is ripe but not too soft. A ripe brie will have a slightly wrinkled rind and a creamy, gooey interior.
- If the sun-dried tomatoes are too dry, soak them in hot water for 10 minutes before using.
- If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use a spoon to spread the egg wash over the phyllo dough.
- Be careful not to overcook the brie, or it will become runny. The brie is done when it is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve the brie immediately with crackers, fruit, or bread.
