Рецепт Baked Brie with Red Current Jelly and Candied Nuts
I think I watch way too much Chopped on the Food Network sometimes.
Well, I would watch it way too much, if it weren't on so darned late at night.
I'm not exactly a night owl these days. And 10 pm qualifies as such.
But...
I wanted to make some Baked Brie for Tapas this past week, and I had some lovely Brie I'd bought a Trader Joe's recently. It is sliceable. In other words, it looks a little like a log, a little squared off log, that is.
So... I decided to see what else I had in the freezer and pantry I could use with the Brie.
I pulled out some puff pastry from the freezer and let it thaw in the fridge for a little while.
Took the brie cheese, placed it in the center of the pastry.
Added some Red Current Jelly and some crushed Candied Nuts I had hanging around in the fridge, minding their own business.
Then decided I'd cut slits in the sides and try making something fun looking.
Took turns folding them over, and brushed them with lightly beaten eggs.
See.
I love my mini pastry brush, I can just pop off the silicone head and into the dishwasher it goes.
Put the brie log into my mini baking pan, and sprinkled some more crushed candied nuts on the top.
I did bake this at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes, which might have been almost 5 minutes too long.
Either that or I just didn't seal the pastry well enough.
Cause some of the Brie escaped.
But it still tasted good. And I will make it again and again and again.
Just so long as I have some or all of the ingredients hanging around.
