Recipe's preparation

  1. Place zest, Parmesan and garlic into TM bowl and mill for 8 seconds on speed 9.

    Add juice, pine nuts, basil, sugar and salt and mix for 6 seconds on speed 9.

    With blades rotating on speed 3, add oil through hole in lid for 5-6 seconds. Set dressing aside.

  2. Line Varoma dish with piece of baking paper.

    Place unwrapped cheese onto paper, add water to TM bowl and set Varoma into position. You may steam the tomatoes if desired, they tend to become sweeter if steamed.

  3. Warm cheese for 6-8 minutes at Varoma temperature on speed 2. (Times will vary depending upon the size of your cheese.)

    Place cheese carefully onto serving platter, pour dressing over and scatter tomatoes around the platter. Serve with fresh crackers whilst still warm.

Brie can be substituted with Camembert

    Question - is it just the standard sized Brie in the supermarkets or a larger version?

    I adore this recipe and used camembert in place of the brie.

    Delicious! Big Smile

    I would recommend the tomatoes with it otherwise can be heavy.

    The camembert was extra flowy, a show in itself... tmrc_emoticons.p tmrc_emoticons.p

    To eat on as a nice 'dip'.
