Unctuous Canadian triple-cream cheeses are not very suitable for cooking, but their rich creaminess goes well with flavoured toasts or crackers. This recipe makes more than enough toasts for one cheese round; store the remainder in an airtight container. Ask the bakery to cut the baguette in half and slice it on the fine slicer – it will save you lots of time.
