Brie is a go-to for any cheeseboard I make. This soft-ripened cheese originated in Seine-et-Marne, France and has a creamy, buttery texture that is irresistible. Brie has a soft, bloomy rind that is edible (and tasty). In fact in some circles scooping out the cheese and leaving the rind behind is considered a faux pas.
