    I’ve been playing the cheese sourdough myself lately. The crumb is great but the cheese that melts out always burns on the crust and tastes bad:/

    Is one small bite enough to fill the stomach of a grown man?

    Do you feel watched?

    Cheese bread is hard to make. It always makes such a sticky melty mess on the silmat. At least they are easy to clean once cool, because my sweet hubby loved the jalapeno and chedder bread.
