Brie, honey & walnut croissants
A cornerstone of French 'art de vivre' (art of living) is the bold pairing of sweet and savoury flavours. The creaminess of Brie cheese and sweetness of honey is a classic pair, highlighted by the earthy, resinous scent of rosemary. In this recipe, cheese is not just a topping, but the soul of the croissant, melting softly into the dough during baking.
