Observations

Additions: Depending on your taste, you can pair it with any other ingredients, as long as they are small enough to fit comfortably under the puff pastry. Herbs will also be welcome, as well as honey for a sweet/savory version ;-)
Serving: When the camembert comes out of the oven, you might be tempted to cut it and devour it right away. However, don't hesitate to wait 5 to 10 minutes for the camembert to cool down, otherwise it might melt all over your serving dish!

Questions

Do you serve it straight from the oven? Several recipes seem to leave it to set for 30 minutes before serving. Thank you Dianne

We recomand to wait a little before serving because it can be very hot !
