Tasty Tuesday Asiago Cheese Bread!
I recently bought some delicious Asiago cheese bread from a local bakery and decided take a stab at making some of my own. So, on Saturday, when I had the whole house to myself for the day, I made this bread, based on my Kalamata olive bread recipe. It smelled incredible while it was baking, and tasted pretty darn good, too.
Asiago Cheese Bread
Mix together in a large mixing bowl and let set until foamy:
1 cup warm water
2 pkgs yeast
1 tsp sugar
Then add:
1 cup flour
1 1/2 cups grated Asiago cheese
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 egg
1/4 cup melted butter
Mix together and knead in more flour (about 3 cups) until you've got a smooth, non-sticky dough. Cover and let rise 2 hours until doubled in bulk. Punch down the dough and shape into a ball. Place in a greased glass or ceramic pie dish, flatten the ball and lightly grease the dough with a little butter or oil, then let rise, covered, until doubled in size. Bake 50 min in 350 degree oven. Brush the top with milk and bake for 10 more minutes.

Hey Donna, Cheryl have you girls try the sweet potato soup? It's awesome when you eat it with garlic bread and I bet that with that cheese bread Cheryl made it would taste alot better.
ReplyDeleteHi Leslie,
ReplyDeleteThis wasn't quite as good as the kind from the bakery, (not sure what else they might have put in it) but just the smell of it baking is enough to make you want to eat the whole loaf. I hope you like it!
I love Red Lobster. On a cold day, there's nothing like a big, hot bowl of their clam chowder. Love the biscuits, too!
ReplyDeleteKing of the Unicorns, huh? Sounds sort of ... horny....
Sweet potato soup? Is that at Red Lobster? I love sweet potatoes; might be something else I need to try.
