Well these are the first triple cream bries I'll have in the New Year. Wrapped and aging beautifully in my cave.
-
Very pretty Al! How long til you open and cut? You don't put them in the regular fridge (38 degrees) after wrapping, huh? Ages more quickly in the cave, right?
Happy New Year!

These are thicker than most. After wrapping I usually let them sit in the cave for 2 weeks before refrigerating. That seems to be a good formula for success for me. ;)
-
Hmm, I might have to try that. The last mini-brie's I made were way too thick...I probably should have done that with those. Still hoping they will turn out okay though. Maybe I should age them out closer to 6 weeks.
How long will these age before opening up?
-
I usually just age them until they feel nice and soft. Whatever that takes.

Hey Al, just noticed you're from Port Orchard! I'm from Poulsbo (best bakery around!)...was just there visiting the folks & brother over Christmas ;D! My bro lived in Port Orchard for many years (now in Bremerton). I miss the cloudy days and rain...and the bakery too :'(.

I don't!! LOL I work at the shipyard in Bremerton and have lived in Port Orchard since retiring from the Air Force in '96.

Well three more in the cave. These things are in huge demand from my friends.
