    I have a great brie en croute recipe. VERY simple, just pecans and brown sugar, that's it. Not too sweet. I serve it with fresh fruit and some light crackers. It's always been well received by my guests.

    I am a sucker for anything salty-sweet, so the scales are definitely tipped for the sweet here. Although toasted nuts and herbs are divine too... It's a close call!

    If I'm having a lot of guests, or if I do not know the preferences of my guests, I definitely opt for the 1-2-3 brie en croute: just brie, puff pastry, and an egg wash. Then I serve it on a gorgeous platter with both sweet (e.g., chutney, fresh fruit) and savory (e.g., mustards, roasted salted nuts, chopped fresh herbs) accompaniments. That way, my guests can make their serving of brie en croute exactly how they like it.

    I can never decide if this works best with a savory or sweet filling. How should you pick - based on the rest of the dishes you're serving? What's the biggest hit with guests?

    What do you think???
