FAQ · Things people ask
About this recipe.
What if I don't have Emmental or Gouda?
Any good-melting cheese works—Gruyère, Cheddar, or Mozzarella. Avoid pre-shredded cheese with cellulose coating; it won't melt as smoothly.
How do I keep the cheese from leaking out?
Don't cut all the way through the bottom crust. Leave a 1 cm hinge intact, and don't overfill past the pocket's capacity.
