Description

There’s something truly special about combining savory cheeses with a touch of sweetness. This Parmesan Asiago Hot Honey Sourdough has quickly become a favorite in many kitchens. The nutty sharpness of Parmesan, the creamy melt of Asiago, and the gentle heat from hot honey create a loaf that’s both comforting and a little adventurous.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 500g bread flour

  • 400g water

  • 50g active sourdough starter

  • 10g Himalayan salt

  • A generous handful of Parmesan chunks

  • A generous handful of Asiago chunks

  • Drizzle of hot honey


Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, water, sourdough starter, and Himalayan salt. Mix until no dry flour remains. Let the dough rest (autolyse) for 1 hour.

  • Perform 4 sets of coil folds over the next 2 hours. Space them out evenly to allow the dough to relax between folds.

  • Allow the dough to bulk ferment overnight at 65°F for about 10 hours. The dough should rise and develop a slightly airy texture.

  • Once fermentation is complete, transfer the dough to a floured surface. Gently laminate it by stretching it out and sprinkling the Parmesan and Asiago chunks evenly over the surface. Drizzle with hot honey.

  • Fold one third of the dough over the center, add more cheese and honey, then fold the other third on top. Roll up the dough gently.

  • Place the shaped dough into a proofing basket and let it rest while preheating your oven.

  • Preheat your Dutch oven to 450°F.

 

  • Transfer the dough to the Dutch oven. Bake covered for 45 minutes, then remove the lid and bake for an additional 15 minutes to achieve a golden, crispy crust.

Notes

This recipe combines the nutty, salty flavors of Parmesan and Asiago with a sweet, spicy kick from hot honey, all wrapped in a beautifully crusty sourdough loaf. Perfect for both everyday meals and special occasions.
