C'est excellent mais attention aux odeurs. La cuisson révèle toute la force du fromage.
En bouche, le gout est plus délicat !
À refaire sans hésiter.

Attention ! En suivant le temps indiqué, il manque légèrement de cuisson au centre du pain. Cependant, il était déjà bien bruni sur le dessus. Il faudra le couvrir de papier aluminium pour continuer la cuisson sans brûler le dessus.
