Question

My Camembert cheese broke in half during dry salting, can it be rescued?  From Caroline

Answer

There is no way of holding together a Camembert which has broken, the mould coat needs total exposure to air to grow, and bandaging, or using a rubber band (both used in rescuing Stilton) will limit the growth of the mould coat. The cheese is edible as a fresh cheese, so eat it now.
