FAVOURITE WAYS OF COOKING WITH CHEESE: I love simply baking a Camembert
or Brie in a baker maybe adding red wine or port and dipping in with crusty bread. My
wife also makes a fantastic twice-baked cheese soufflé with strong Cheddar, Gruyere
and Parmesan, an easy starter, as you can pre-prepare then bake when ready.
