Notes
Use excellent quality bacon and cheddar.
Look for younger jalapeno peppers that are smooth and green all over with no striations or blemishes. These young green peppers are less stressed and more mild.
Use any non-light beer. Stay away from the flavored microbrews unless the flavor complements the bread.
Do not over-mix the dough.
The bread loaf is done when set and lightly browned. You can use the toothpick test on this bread, but it may come out with a little cheese on it and still be done.
Remove the cooked bread from the pan as soon as possible and let it cool for at least twenty minutes.
Other shredded cheese to try include Pepper Jack, Gouda, Colby, or Parmesan.
Try dried herbs like oregano or marjoram or fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, or dill.
Store leftovers in a storage bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
To freeze, first fully cool and then wrap in plastic wrap, then aluminum foil, then place in a freezer bag. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
