Only one Wegmans grocery store's bake shop offers "filled bread", and only
at lunch hour!! If Im not in the vacinity at the right time, and if I'm not
at the front of the line, I don't get any!!
So, turning to you, I'm wondering if anyone has a recipe for bread that has
filling, thus:
The loaf is a couple of inches longer than the bag, some 14 inches. It is
a chewy bread, something like a chewy French bread. It seems that the
filling is placed on the dough, and the dough rolled and sealed, brushed
with egg white (?) and olive oil and sesame seeds sprinkled on. Then four
slits are cut in the top, and it's baked.
Some fillings are spinach and ricotta, veggie (onion, garlic, red and
yellow peppers) and portabella mushrooms with a little onion and garlic.
Each has a few hot peppers in the mix.
I think I can duplicate the filling, but what sort of bread might be used??
