What it is

Brie is a soft, creamy cow's milk cheese that originated in the Brie region of France. It is typically made by draining the whey from the curd and then aging the cheese for several weeks to months, developing a bloomy white rind.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use brie for its rich, mild flavor and creamy texture. It is often found in cheese platters, baked appetizers, sandwiches, and pizzas.

Health notes

Brie is a natural food ingredient and does not have a specific regulatory status like an additive. It is a source of calcium and protein. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) have evaluated many food ingredients, but specific evaluations for brie cheese as a whole ingredient are not typically published in the same way as for isolated food additives. As with most dairy products, moderation is advised due to its saturated fat content.

Allergen info

Brie is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
