Description

When toasted and slathered with butter, each slice of this rich, savory sourdough loaf tastes like a grilled cheese sandwich. Inspired by a loaf that Barb Alpern (the “Sourdough Queen” of the Baker's Hotline) used to make at Zingerman's Bakehouse, this aromatic, crusty Parmesan bread is jam-packed with over a half pound of grated and cubed cheese and generously spiced with coarse black pepper. If your family and friends are anything like the bakers in the King Arthur Test Kitchen, they'll be clamoring over this peppery Parmesan bread.
