First attempt at a cheese bread: Jalapeño/cheddar/Colby Jack & the other just cheese.

Would you be willing to share the recipe for this wonderful looking cheese bread?

Would you be willing to share the recipe for this wonderful looking cheese bread?

2 cups KA Bread Flour
1.5 cups of GM AP flour
2 cups shredded cheese
Canned Jalapeños chopped (~1/4 cup)
1 tbsp of kosher salt
2.25 tpsn of yeast
2 cups of 100f water
Pinch of sugar

I followed the steps of a Tasty post. Let rise for 1 hour, fold. Let rise for thirty, form. I split the mix between two “disposable” tins.

Loaf de jour,

Hey Chef - was there an image here? I'm not seeing it....

 

[Hanglow]

sourdough with flaxseeds and chia seeds. I scored the top three times but it still escaped elsewhere

Hey everyone. Somehow I didn't see this thread. I've been brewing for about 7 years and baking sourdough every weekend for the last year. Fun, complementary hobbies.

Another day, another loaf. Today, 90% KA bread flour + 10% Bob's whole wheat, 2tsp smoked paprika, lots of cracked black pepper, and 90g English coastal cheddar.
Same "quick" process as last time (no levain, no autolyse, 8hr bulk at room temp, 17 hours in fridge).

This is my take on @deadwolfbones cheddar and paprika loaf using the same "lazy" sourdough method.

Dough

* 450g bread flour
* 50g rye flour
* 375g water @ 90'F
* 100g unfed starter
* 11g sea salt
* 100g sharp cheddar, 1/4" diced
* 2 tsp paprika

The cheddar was really well mixed throughout the loaf and you get a burst of cheddar in almost every bite. The paprika gives it a unique flavor that I really enjoy. The color from both the cheese and paprika gives the loaf a really nice orange/copper color.

My full recipe with photos and complete timetable are here: https://alegrebread.com/2020/04/06/cheddar-cheese-and-paprika-sourdough/

First traditional sourdough

the three latest breads I baked. It’s about 60% white wheat flour and 40% full grain.
Enjoying it with buffalo cheese and home made pesto

Fresh loaf of bread for the morning. A blend of about 70% GP and 30% lentil flours. Overnight fermentation. Popped in the oven about 0430.

This flour blend makes for a tasty, but dense, loaf. My try it again with about 10% lentil (we like the flavor) and see how that comes out.

Beautiful, Dave. A very eager starter. What's your starter composition, hydration? Dough hydration?

It’s white flour starter. 50/50 flour/water. For the dough I used 255g of white flour and 170g of full grain wheat flour. 150g of starter and 300g of water. I don’t know about percents.

I mostly use italian flour - got a lot of them with ended exp. date so I’m feeding my starter and making bread with them.

A couple 50 50 ap and stone ground whole wheat loaves. My wife asked me to make these smallish loaves again. The bread slices are good size for the kids. Turns out one dough batch makes two pizzas and two small loaves, so a good combo to rely on for me.

Here's a sourdough loaf with furikake(!) mixed into the dough, plus more fried shallots and mixed sesame seeds on top.

 

[schematix]

Been trying to get an ear on a loaf for years and finally figured it out.

Out of bread flour now though.

 

[Sbe2]

cheese muffins were a hit.

 

[applescrap]

Tried a loaf in air fryer. Great spring but not right.

 

[kirkwt]

Short on space and containers while sheltering at home. Has any one scaled down the recipe for 5 minute bread. Say a half batch?

 

[DaveLeaf]

I bake this kind of bread everyday at work in wood oven. It’s 65% hydration dough with italian 00 flour and 48h fermentation. Sometimes I make sandwich out of it, tastes amazing.

 

[Robert65]

Fresh from the oven...

Realized I hadn't made sourdough loaf in a while. 100% KAF AP, stiff levain, fairly wet but don't ask me the final hydration, I mix by hand.

 

[TandemTails]

Something a little different this time. I made some pesto a few days ago and had some left over after dinner. Figured I'd use it in some bread.

[Beernik]

Making my third attempt to use a stiff levain for making NY style bagels. First attempt was okay but not stellar. Second attempt was a failure.

The third attempt won’t be ready to boil until around lunchtime tomorrow.

My friend asked me about sourdough. I need some help from you all to help him. Is this the way to start? Thanks, any thoughts tips appreciated very much.
