bake: jalapeno cheddar bread.

By now, you know I love baking bread--especially the no knead variety cooked in a dutch oven and steamed perfectly for a crisply outer shell.

Enter my kicked of version of a simple no knead bread. To this dough, I added three generously large jalapenos to the dough, as well as heaping cups of cheddar cheese. This dough is really slack and only requires you to paddle fold it inward towards its center between rises. It's adorned with jalapeno rings and cheese on top.

This creates a luxeriously airy, light tasting bread with a kick and softness for days because of all that fat from the cheddar. It's a miracle bread. Eat it plain, you won't stop. Eat it with soup, you won't stop. Eat it as the bread for a grilled cheese, you won't stop.

What other breads should I add to my repertoire?
