Cooking President Camembert

[Martin_M]

Hi folks,

I love to order camembert when out at my local Beefeater restaurant and I recently found out that it's made by President. As luck would have it, Tesco stock it...and having cooked it in the oven for around 20-25 minutes tonight, I'm sorry to say that it tasted nothing like it does in the restaurant!

It was a little 'gooey' and sticky like it is when I eat out but it had an almost acidic taste and really didn't taste that nice at all. Am I doing something wrong?

I recently bought *rather expensive* camembert from a local market and it tasted to me like ammonia! Now either my taste buds are less than sophisticated or I'm doing something wrong!

All advice welcome :-)

Cooked it in the box but didn't slit it guys. I would say the consistency was very similar to that in the pic above (thanks for sharing!) What's the whole ammonia taste though? That can't be normal surely.

Don't give up your day job sir lol

Are you supposed to eat the rind?
