Baking Challenge

Savory Plaited Centerpiece

Give your bread a name and tell us about your recipe.

Reuben-in-a-Pocket Sandwich

Would you describe yourself as a rogue baker, or do you strictly adhere to the recipe?

It depends, but if I am confident with the ingredients I’m using – I am more likely to go rogue. In this case, I have made "savory plaited centerpieces" before. I just didn’t realize that it what it was called. Calzones, stuffed breads, even things that I would consider stuffed meat pies all now have new meaning!

Tell us about how you added a Wisconsin twist to your bread creation.

I used Shullsburg Creamery (from Southwestern Wisconsin’s Driftless Region) Swiss Cheese in my mixture as well as sprinkled it on top of the bread prior to baking.

How did you do?

Pleasantly satisfied.
