Jalapeno (Sharp Vermont) Cheddar

Jalapeño Cheddar Sourdough
If you like jalapeños, this one tends to find you.
The aroma has that familiar warmth right away, and the flavor follows through—sharp cheddar for richness, fresh jalapeños folded throughout for a slow, steady heat that builds as you eat. It’s not about burning your mouth. It’s about that satisfying warmth jalapeño lovers look for, balanced by real bread and real cheese.
The crumb stays soft and tender, and the crust bakes up golden with just enough bite. The jalapeños are worked into the loaf, not scattered on top, so every slice—or torn piece—gets a little heat without overpowering the flavor of the bread itself.
It’s excellent toasted, makes a standout grilled cheese, and pairs especially well with eggs or soup. Like a lot of our loaves, though, it often gets eaten before it ever makes it to a knife. People tear into it, take a few bites, let the warmth settle in, then come back for more.
It’s a loaf for people who appreciate heat done right—enough to notice, enough to enjoy, and balanced enough to keep reaching back for another bite.
