Brie, often referred to as the "Queen of Cheeses," is a soft French cheese made from cow's milk, originating in the Brie region of France. Known for its creamy texture and edible white rind, Brie is rich in nutrients, including protein, calcium, and vitamin B12, all of which support bone health and overall wellness. However, its high-fat content, including saturated fats, makes it a cheese best enjoyed in moderation. The creamy interior has a mild, buttery flavor with subtle earthy undertones, making it a versatile addition to various dishes or a standout on a charcuterie board. While Brie can provide a source of essential nutrients, individuals watching their fat or sodium intake should consume it sparingly. Its luxurious flavor and texture make it a cherished staple in French and international cuisine.
