Flavor Notes: Sweet, earthy, nutty, grassy undertones
Crumb: Burnished crust, open and custardy crumb
Perfect for: Soft scrambled eggs and Logan’s chorizo, dipped into sauce au poivre, homemade ricotta… but please try at least one bite with nothing but a healthy serving of butter, I beg.
Ingredients & Sourcing: Farm & Sparrow Cherokee White Eagle Blue Corn
Why this bread:
The bones of this bread are the beloved tomato slab, but its blue corn sibling has stolen my heart with the way it reveals corn’s many layers of flavor. Warm with butter, it tastes uncannily like buttered popcorn.
About the corn:
Cherokee White Eagle Blue Corn is a true treasure of the Cherokee Nation, developed over years of careful seed work in Eastern Tennessee. Unlike many colored corns that lean tannic, this variety delivers the nuance of ancient blue corn with a gentle sweetness, making it endlessly versatile.
