So, it is Twin Peaks night again in my neighborhood and I needed to come up with something to eat from the show. I’m a little short on time today so I decided to make brie sandwiches based on the following quote. Jerry had just gotten back to Twin Peaks from France:
JERRY (CONTINUED)
Brother Ben, this is the best damn sandwich I
ever ate, it’s a baguette, with brie and butter, had
four of these damn things every day I was there.
(he reaches in and finds another one)
Got a couple left – here, try one
I love that show!
Anyhow, here’s how I made them.
Ingredient list
yep, that’s it, Brie, Butter and Baguettes
Start by slicing the baguettes lengthwise
Spread softened butter all over the bread
peel all the rind off the brie (if you stick it in the freezer for 15 minutes, this will be easier)
cut the brie into pieces and spread it on the bread
Close up the sandwich and place it on a baking sheet
bake it in a 350 degree oven until the cheese melts and the bread crisps up (about 10 to 15 minutes)
slice and place in a basket with a tea towel to keep it warm until you can get to your neighbor’s house
or maybe just sit in your truck for a few minutes and eat a piece or two (just to make sure that it tastes ok)

OMG as soon as I started reading this post I got excited. Not only because I love sandwiches but I also adore Twin Peaks! It was the theme of this year’s birthday! Never mind that most of my friends had never seen it lol. Clearly I should have invited you! 😀
Cookie says

Brie, butter and bread – my favourite sandwhich combo. It’s making me hungry even though i’ve already eaten my dinner!
Barbara Bakes says
Oh my! Talk about kicking it up a notch!
Maggie Mallard says
Oh wow and I just had decided this afternoon to join Weight Watchers. lol
Well I may have to try these first don’t want to think about them the whole time I am trying to loose.
Was thinking about you wondering if you had been writing and then I come over here and find food.
Now off to your writing section

Hello, my name is Axelle and I’m french, I live in the south of france, in a town called Toulon, between Nice and Marseille.
Cheese and bread … with a good wine … WHAT ELSE ???? 😉
Barbara says
You’ve got that right. Although I add apple butter and a thin slice of turkey to mine!
Phyllis Ryan says
I’m with Cookie. When my WW journey is on a break I will be putting Brie on a Bagette.
Pondside says
It just doesn’t get much better than this – unless you’re eating it in France and drinking a glass of red wine.
You….eccentric…..could have fooled me – I thought you were as normal as I am…..then again…..
Marysol says
Baguette, butter and Brie! Oh my.
Some would settle for just the baguette, but where’s the fun in that?

JDaniel's Mom says
I totally agree. This may be the best sandwich. I love the dents I have. I just struggle ti stay consistent with my reactions to tantrums.
iris says
The best sandwich I ever ate also involves brie. A roasted, butterflied chicken breast with slices of brie melted on top. On Tuscany bread. Awesome.
Pam says
OMG Woman…I just can’t take it…..give me a piece of that NOW!…lol! xo
