Perfect for a cozy evening, a romantic date, and gatherings with friends.
There are dishes that require no extra words — just aroma, a crispy crust, and soft, gooey cheese that reaches for a piece of warm bread. Baked camembert with baguette and cherry tomatoes is like a cozy French dinner that is easy to create at home. This appetizer evokes the atmosphere of a Parisian bistro: fresh rosemary, golden bread, and the creamy tenderness of melted cheese.
Ingredients:
- camembert — 1 piece
- baguette — 1 piece
- cherry tomatoes — 150 g
