Chef's Tips

For a richer flavor, you can add a splash of balsamic vinegar along with the honey.

Other topping ideas include pecans, almonds, figs, or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a little heat.

If you prefer a milder flavor, you can score the top of the brie wheel lightly before adding the toppings.

Be careful not to overbake the brie, as it can become too runny.

"This salad offers a refreshing contrast to the rich, warm brie. The peppery watercress and sweet pear provide a light counterpoint, while the sharp Stilton cheese echoes the brie's creamy texture in a different way. The sherry vinaigrette adds a bright acidity that cuts through the richness, preparing the palate for the main course."

Dessert

Sticky Toffee Pudding with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

A classic British dessert featuring a moist date cake soaked in a rich toffee sauce, served warm with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Perfectly complements baked brie.

"Sticky toffee pudding provides a classic British indulgence that perfectly complements the baked brie. The warm, moist cake and rich toffee sauce echo the warming and comforting nature of the brie, while the cool vanilla ice cream provides a refreshing counterpoint to the overall richness and unifies the sweet elements across both courses."
