Inspired by kimchi from Korean cuisine, this cheesy bread recipe from the Noble Pig vineyard and winery infuses these Asian flavors into a crispy crust.
As a base, the recipe calls for a loaf of Italian or French bread, split in half. Additions like chopped up chives, minced garlic, ranch dressing, plus Asian cooking essentials like fish sauce and kimchi load this breaded snack up with flavor. To make sure the bread soaks up as much flavor as possible, this recipe involves making a kimchi butter, described as mild and savory, although the level of spice could easily be adjusted to your liking. As for cheese that’s generously melted over the bread halves, this recipe is loaded with a blend of six shredded Italian types—asiago, fontina, mozzarella, parmesan, provoline and romano.
