Brie’s taste
Brie has a soft rind that enhances the creamy and buttery taste. Alouette is a double cream Brie that lands an exceptional smooth texture and mild flavors. Some cheese enthusiasts prefer to enjoy the creamy cheese on its own or spread on bread. This is why Alouette created a delicious Brie spread. This delicacy is sold in our store and appreciated enjoyed under the name Crème de Brie, available in original flavor or with garlic and herbs. For those who are afraid of the rind, Crème de Brie is your perfect solution.
The history of Brie
Brie’s tradition was born during the time of the Roman Empire in Europe. This refined cheese was widely enjoyed by the French nobility. An order of two hundred Brie cheeses was recorded for the King Philippe-Auguste. Several recipes have gained international renown, and Meaux has become known worldwide for its PDO Brie. Unfortunately, Brie-de-Meaux PDO is illegal in the USA, due to the unpasteurized milk. You are sure to be beguiled by this millennium-old cheese.

The larger format of the 8 oz. This is my go-to for a baked brie. Wrap in puff pastry and serve with fruit preserves. Don't want the extra carbs? top with a little brown sugar and dried herbs to caramelize as it bakes in an ovenproof dish. Top with some toasted nuts and dried fruit when it comes out and serve.
