Add design from leftover dough if you'd like, and brush with egg mixture You can use leftover sorrel pulp from your juice to make the jam. It will be a little less acidic and the color will be a brighter red instead of darker red. Make my jam a day ahead, so I don’t feel rushed and the jam will have time to settle. Add the jam to the center of the brie by slicing the brie in half and having the jam as a filler. Next time, I’ll use a larger pot, so that I don’t need to add water frequently to tenderize the sorrel.
