Cheesy Sourdough Potbread

The Cheesy pot bread. I figured out that my photo's are too large and it won't upload, am working on it as I have some interesting ones of the process. This bread is a BIG favourite and the grated mature Cheddar was added during the stretch/fold process which I do 3 times with 10 minute rest between. It works very well as there is no kneading to break the cheese up so there are lots of yummy bits in the finished loaf.

I would love to eat that this morning.  Thanks for the details, I like howyou incorporated the cheese. Mature cheddar cheese and sourdough sound like a perfect pairing.

Warm Regards,

Casey

cheese and bread were made for each other.  Love the bold bake and orange colored, cheesy, open crumb

Nice baking!

That's a real winner!  Lovely crust, crumb and color.  Thanks for the tip on how to incorporate the cheese into the dough.

Thank you all for the encouraging comments........ Just one tip! Cheddar cheese can be quite salty especially if mature so maybe an idea to reduce your salt by a pinch......

I love cheese in bread and have made many myself.  Yours looks perfect.

Nice bake.
