Categories     Sides

Time 3h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 ½ cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
2 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
2 jalapeñoes, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 jalapeño, sliced into rings, divided
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 cups warm water
2 ¼ teaspoons instant yeast
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 dutch oven with lid
silicone spatula, if you don't have one, you can use your slightly moistened hand

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the bread flour, 2 cups (200 g) of cheddar cheese, the chopped jalapeños, and salt. Stir well.
  • In a separate large bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Pour the flour mixture on top of the water and use a silicone spatula to stir until the dough comes together.
  • With the spatula, fold the dough around the edges of the bowl toward the center, rotating the bowl each time and folding a total of 8 times. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest in a warm place for 60 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
  • Using the spatula, fold the dough toward the center again 8 more times. Cover with the towel and let rest for 30 minutes.
  • Add the Dutch oven and lid to the oven, and preheat to 450˚F (230˚C) for 30 minutes.
  • Lightly flour a clean work surface and your hands. Carefully peel the dough out of the bowl and onto the floured surface. Flip over and carefully brush away excess flour. Fold the edges of the dough towards the center 8 times, then flip over the dough and transfer to a piece of parchment paper.
  • Brush the top of the dough with the olive oil, so the cheese will stick. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup (50 g) of cheese on top. Use a sharp knife to score the bread with an "X", which will allow steam to escape. Arrange the jalapeño rings on top of the cheese.
  • Carefully remove the Dutch oven from the oven and use the parchment to lift the bread into the pot. Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes, then remove the lid and bake for 20 more minutes, until the bread is golden brown.
  • Carefully slide the bread out of the pot and onto a wire rack. Remove the parchment paper and let the bread cool for at least 1 hour before slicing.
  • Slice the bread and serve as desired.
  • Enjoy!

JALAPENO-CHEDDAR SCONES



Jalapeno-Cheddar Scones image

Caution, only for those who like scones with a strong cheese presence and a little jalapeno pepper bite. This is for my friend Patrick. For bolder flavor, dust lightly with jalapeno chile powder.

Provided by Jim K

Categories     Scones

Time 45m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large egg
1 tablespoon water
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup unsalted butter, cubed
16 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
4 medium jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
1 cup buttermilk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk egg and water together for egg wash.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or fork until pea-sized lumps remain. Add Cheddar cheese and jalapeno peppers; toss in the flour mixture to prevent the cheese from clumping. Add 1 cup buttermilk and mix until a sticky dough forms. Only add additional buttermilk if absolutely necessary.
  • Form dough into a ball and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half and form each piece into a 3/4-inch thick circle. The circles should measure about 8 inches in diameter, but the thickness is more important that the diameter. Cut each circle into 8 wedges. Transfer wedges to the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 1/2 inch between each one. Paint the top of each wedge with egg wash.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 22 to 23 minutes. Serve warm.
