Salt and pour the pie shell over the cheese

Maroilles tart is generally served with a good lettuce or, to make like the ch’tis, with a salad ofendive or, as they say locally, chicory!

Enjoy your meal !

About Maroilles

Maroilles is a pretty little village in the North, located in Avesnois, a stone's throw from the department of Aisne.

Maroilles comes from an older cheese, made in the 7th century by the monks of the abbey of Maroilles, then called craquegnon.

It was in the 10th century that the Bishop of Cambrai suggested to the monks to lengthen the ripening of this cheese which would then become Maroilles.

Maroilles is made from renneted milk, salted just after removal from the mold and then stored in the steam rooms where it becomes covered with a light blue mold. It is then brushed to remove this layer of mold and then placed in the cellar for refining.

The Maroilles tart is one of the most emblematic and authentic recipes of this cheese.
