French onion loaf might possibly be the best flavored sourdough I’ve made (and I’ve tried a lot) 😋


French onion sourdough loaf with caramelized onions, swiss, Asiago and grana padano Parmesan cheeses. I cannot find words to describe how delicious this is 😳

    Ok! Recipe I used:
    First, caramelize onions. I used a GIANT sweet onion, but you could use 2 normal sized onions and 1T EVOO and 1T butter, sm. pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.

    Next, make the dough:
    100g ripe starter
    360g water
    30g honey
    450g bread flour
    50g rye flour (or you could use wheat, or all white)
    10-12g fine sea salt
    2-4Tbsp French onion dip or soup mix ( I used Kinder’s)
    (Adjust salt level to your liking. I did 12g salt and about 3T onion mix)
    *mix all ingredients as you normally would, I did 2 sets of stretch and folds, then incorporated the caramelized onions into the last 2 stretch and folds. Let it bulk rise and then when you do your pre-shaping, add 4oz Swiss or gryuère cheese cubed, 2oz Asiago and 2oz Parmesan, both shredded. Shape and cold proof overnight. Bake as you normally would, but last 10min sprinkle a little more shredded cheese on top.

    Sorry, I realize a lot of people don’t need those directions in depth, but just wanted to share what my process was 🥰

    ETA: I made a few typos in the recipe, but fixed them now!

    I make a French onion loaf similar to this!

    If you want to throw a little more English on it, try celery salt.

    I’ll have to try your recipe. It looks delicious. I wasn’t hungry while opening Reddit, but now I am.
