Remarks
You can use another cheese, if you prefer, instead of the Comté. Hard-paste types work best, though this is not essential. Mimolette, for example, gives a very different flavour (as well as a lovely colour).
Don't add salt in stage 2 as the cheese and mustard are already salty enough.
Don't add salt in stage 2 as the cheese and mustard are already salty enough.
Keeping: Best enjoyed hot, straight from the oven.
