Brie in Puff Pastry
Ingredients:
▪ 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
▪ 1 cup diced shallots
▪ Salt & pepper to taste
▪ 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
▪ 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
▪ 10” x 7” piece puff pastry
▪ 6 oz President® Brie log
▪ 1 egg, beaten for egg wash
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425 F. In medium saute pan. Heat oil and and saute
shallots until golden brown, stirring often to keep from burning, about 7
minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and remove from heat. Let cool
about 5 minutes, then add tarragon and mustard. Line a sheet pan with
parchment or nonstick foil and place pastry on it. Place Brie log on pastry,
about one inch from edge. Cover brie with shallot mixture and roll up in
pastry tightly. Trim any excess pastry and seal edge tightly. Pinch ends to
seal. Use any remaining pastry to cut out decorative shapes and use egg
wash to paste them on top of log. Brush egg wash over entire log. Bake
for 15-20 minutes until puffed and golden.
