Method

1

Prepare the cheese: Gently slice the Camembert wheel horizontally into two equal rounds.

2

Prepare the garlic and chilies: Thinly slice the garlic cloves. Lightly crush the bird's eye chilies.

3

Layer the ingredients: In a clean glass jar, layer the Camembert slices with the sliced garlic, crushed chilies, Herbes de Provence, salt, and peppercorns.

4

Cover with oil: Pour the olive oil over the cheese and spices, ensuring the cheese is fully submerged. If necessary, add more olive oil.

5

Marinate: Seal the jar tightly and refrigerate for 3-5 days. Turn the jar occasionally to ensure even marination. Taste after 3 days and adjust marinating time to your preference.

6

Serve: Remove from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving. Serve with crusty bread or crackers.
