Brie is a soft French cheese made from cow’s milk that has a smooth and creamy texture. If you’re unfamiliar with the cheese, it also has a white rind over it that is edible.

It is traditionally cut into small wedges and eaten with plain bread or crackers. You could also pair it with all sorts of toppings and drinks. If you’re looking to cook with brie, melt it into many different dishes to enjoy its unique, gooey deliciousness. Cut brie by the slice from the tip to the rind. The tastiest part of the brie is the tip.

Keep the brie triangular-shaped, cutting along its edge. No one will notice as long as you preserve the triangular shape of the brie. Go on and take part of the rind! If you’re cutting brie the right way, each slice will have some on it. If you cut across the brie to remove the tip, you inevitably leave behind a slice that is all rind. Eat the rind along with the rest of the cheese. Everyone wonders what they are supposed to do with that hard shell on cheese, but a brie rind is safe to eat.
