  • Sorry here are the particulars regarding this bread, recipe is from Peter Reinharts book-Bread Bakers Apprentice- This is a 3 day process:
    Day 1 Sponge
    Day 2 mix, shape and refrigerate
    Day 3 top with roasted onions and remaining Asiago and Bake

    His breads use less yeast and can be baked in a 3 day window which gives bread time to develop more flavor. 

    I can post recipe if you would like, this bread is amazing, if using egg I cook at 450 in oven I start at 500 and then lower to 450. If you make this bread you will not be sorry it is truly worth the effort and one that the BGE definitely does justice to.

    @G-squared
    Thank you for the inspiration and recipe! I couldn't wait. I just made something up. Roasted a bunch of diced onions in the cast iron. Shredded up a handful of asiago. Threw in a couple of chopped up pieces of bacon, because... why not? No measurements. 

    Did a bulk rise for almost 24 hours on the counter. One loaf of plain sourdough, and one with the fixings...

    Now proofing in my new oven, which has a "proofing" setting, which I don't really understand yet, but why not? 

    I'll bake later this morning...

  • Love the bacon idea, this is a great bread, my wife gives it the "O" rating. Let me know how yours turns out.

    Oh wow. Thank you for the inspiration! This turned out amazing, best flavored loaf I've made yet...



    I need to work on my shaping skills, to keep the dough ball from flattening out, but @blind99 sent me a YouTube video with tips, so I will work on that next round...
