Cheese crisps

[TooManyCrisps]

If you chop up some brie (2cm cubes) and microwave them (approx 3 mins, but do it in 30 sec bursts to prevent scorching them), until they go puffy like wee marshmallows. Allow to cool.

They go all crunchy like quavers. Delish.

Do you leave the rind on? I will have to try this.

I've been missing something to put marmite on. Mmmmm I'm going to have to try this.

 

[Lampman]

I think you are an evil genius, now I will have to try that!

 

[Brunneria]

yes, I leave the rind on.

You can also melt cheese in the microwave like BB did in the oven. Cheese squares and slices. But you have to time it very closely. Overdone is vile. Far worse than over-baked.

Oh, and if you hang the still soft microed cheese slice over a rack or wooden spoon handle to cool, they cool and harden to resemble crisp tacos.

I have just nuked a Cheese Pod for 1:20, it seems to have come out alright. Will experiment more later.

Edit: I have just had a taste, crunchy like my late sisters cheese straws she used to make at school cookery class.

We will put Vegimite on instead of Marmite.

I have a small microwave turntable up at the shed, will clean it up and put it on top of the turntable in the kitchen. Can do multiple cheesy goodness at one hit.

I like vegimite too. We can't always get it here though.

We always took a couple of jars of Vegimite back to the UK when we used to visit family.

The only place I have seen it for sale in London was just down from Australia House, there was a street stall selling it plus other Australian stuff, but this was in 1984 though so most probably not there now.

I'm in western Canada, marmite is pretty commen. Depending on the store sometimes i find Vegemite.

I am drooling at all those photos. I will be adding cheese slices to my Tesco order this week

 

[Ultramum]

Drool ...

These are my brie puffs
(apologies for the state of the silicon bakeware. does anyone know how to keep silicon looking OK after it has been used a few times?)
The wetness around the puffs is the fat that has come out of the brie during cooking.
The wetness on the wicker is rain, due to me having to go outside and use garden furniture for the photoshoot, in order to get the lighting I needed.

Ok, just post your address and we'll all be round for tea and brie puffs...

Jumping on the plane now with a jar of marmite. I'll be there in 8 hours.

Just cooked up some using a generic brand of cheese slices and grated cheese.

I put the cheese slice at the bottom of a thermostone dish put some grated cheese on top with salt and cracked black pepper, put the other slice of cheese on top.

Into the microwave for two minutes, they are nice and crunchy when they have cooled down.

They are definitely moorish.
