Ingredients
  • balsamic vinegar
  • 4 ounces brie
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Olive oil
  • 1/3 cup pine nuts
  • Salad greens
  • 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
Instructions

In a small sauce pan, heat butter until it melts , then toss in pine nuts.

Add brown sugar, cumin, cayenne and salt and stir to combine.Once brown sugar has melted and nuts are fully coated, slide onto a wax paper lined baking sheet and place in the freezer to cool.Once nuts have cooled, dump them into a food processor and chop until they form small crumbles.

Pour onto a small plate.Slice brie into four pieces* and press two sides of the cheese into the nuts, coating both sides completely.

Heat a swirl of olive oil in a pan. When hot, add the cheese, cooking both sides just until almost browned. (Brie melts quickly, so dont leave it in the pan long. A few seconds on each side should do.)

Serve with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
