Merry Christmas from Champagne Laurent-Perrier

Ultra Brut

Parmesan Crisps

Ingredients : 250g parmesan, salt and pepper On a tray covered with baking paper, use a tablespoon to create fairly thin, medium sized circles of parmesan cheese. Space them well so that they can grow slightly in the oven. Season with pepper. – Bake for 5 minutes at 180 °. The parmesan will melt and form crisps. – When the crips are browned, take them out of the oven and let cool. The parmesan crips will then harden becoming very easy to take off of the baking paper.
