Jalapeño Cheddar Bread

Spicy and sharp. The kind of bread that makes a bowl of soup into a meal.

Mini Loaf $6

Full Loaf $12

This is our boldest loaf — a hand-shaped sourdough studded with fresh jalapeño and sharp aged cheddar. The heat builds slowly as you eat, balanced by the richness of the cheese. We bake it in mini loaves so the crust-to-crumb ratio is high — a crispy, cheese-loaded edge on every slice. This bread turns a simple bowl of chili or white bean soup into something worth coming back for.

The Craft

We bake this bread in two stages — first a hot blast to set the crust and lock in the cheese, then lower heat to finish cooking through without burning. The jalapeños are hand-sliced and tossed with a pinch of salt and a little oil before they go in, which helps them caramelize rather than steam. The result is a bread with chunky pockets of cheesy, spicy flavor and a crust that cracks when you tap it.

Recipe Pairing

This bread shines in our Sourdough Toast Three Ways — try it toasted with a smear of butter and a pinch of flaky salt.
