French Fougasse with Roasted Red Bell Pepper, Garlic, Walnut & Mozarella … #fortheloveofbread
Bread we love! With the carbs threatening an overdose, did a tiny substitution with whole wheat flour and used instant yeast. I also literally stuffed it, almost making it a more like a baked sandwich than bread. It was delicious and disappeared soon! I didn’t have Gouda so used mozzarella instead … any cheese is good and mozzarella was great. Warm, stringy, flavourful … cheesily indulgent.
