Eid Tea Party

Re: Eid Tea Party

I'm in Maryland, USA.

Baked Brie: IT WAS INCREDIBLY EASY AND DELICIOUS.

A big hit.

I got a full wheel of brie, I cut it in half (so there are now two circles, rather than one). I then put apricot preserves in between the two layers of cheese, sprinkled with a bit of pecans. Then I wrapped it in a sheet of puff pastry, sprinkled pecans and poured maple syrup over that, and then baked at 375 for a while, till golden. Broiled for a few minutes right at the end.

It was soooo easy and so popular, I wish I had made more!

For the Shrimp Platter I just defrosted and steamed frozen shrimp (with tails) and made a marinara dipping sauce.
