Make some Cheddar Jalapeño Sourdough w. me!

Are you ready to elevate your sourdough game? This Cheddar Jalapeño Sourdough is not just about flavors; it’s about the perfect texture and harmony of ingredients. Using Tillamook Mild Cheddar and fresh chopped jalapeños, you’ll create a loaf that is both tangy and pleasantly spicy. To start, make sure to have your basic sourdough ingredients: flour, water, salt, and a sourdough starter. Begin by following your Southern Sourdough Co. recipe and incorporate the jalapeños and cheddar into the dough after the initial mix. The fermentation process will infuse these ingredients into the bread, creating a delightful burst of flavor in every bite. The key is to fold the ingredients into the dough gently to maintain the bread's structure while ensuring even distribution. After shaping your dough, let it rise overnight for maximum flavor development. The patience will pay off as you bake your loaf, leading to a beautifully crispy crust and a soft, cheesy interior. Remember to bake it a bit longer—around 10-15 minutes more than usual—to achieve that perfect golden finish. Serve this bread fresh from the oven for an unforgettable treat, whether paired with butter, soups, or enjoyed on its own. Your friends and family will surely ask for seconds!
