Brie And Leek Sandwiches

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I scaled this back for two for a yummy Sunday brunch which we really enjoyed. :) Love leeks, love brie but would never have thought of this particular combination. Ours were rustic rather than elegant: I left the crusts on the bread (ciabatta) and the rind on the brie. Although we're not sweet tooths, I included the sugar and think it added another dimension to the great blend of flavours. Ever uncomfortable when I come across "water" as an ingredient, I added a little lemon juice and a tiny bit of wine to the water I added. And decadently, I just had to add some butter on top of the toasted sandwiches when they came out of the oven: I just don't like the dryness of toasted bread without butter. This is certainly a recipe I'll make again and one I'll keep in mind when making a larger quantity is required. Thank you for sharing this recipe, Sharon! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.

    Brie and Leek Sandwiches, These make great tea sandwiches, appetizers or lunch!, I scaled this back for two for a yummy Sunday brunch which we really enjoyed 🙂 Love leeks, love brie but would never have thought of this particular combination Ours were rustic rather than elegant: I left the crusts on the bread (ciabatta) and the rind on the brie Although we’re not sweet tooths, I included the sugar and think it added another dimension to the great blend of flavours Ever uncomfortable when I come across water as an ingredient, I added a little lemon juice and a tiny bit of wine to the water I added And decadently, I just had to add some butter on top of the toasted sandwiches when they came out of the oven: I just don’t like the dryness of toasted bread without butter This is certainly a recipe I’ll make again and one I’ll keep in mind when making a larger quantity is required Thank you for sharing this recipe, Sharon! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders , Well it just goes to show how different tastes are The last reviewer would have preferred sweeter and I actually think I’d have preferred it without the sugar! I love Laughing Cow cheese and onion sandwiches and thought maybe I was just a bit weird, but this is very similar just much more elegant and more delicate flavors Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT3
