A freshly baked loaf of sourdough bread (using 100 year old sourdough starter, of course) is such a clever way to create contrasting flavors and textures. A crispy, oven browned crust with a soft and tender center filled with pockets of aromatic and seasoned pesto is a buttery, nutty, basil infused bread treat!

Serve this yummy, savory bread warm, slathered with butter – topped with eggs – smeared with cream cheese or avocado, or as an accompaniment and base for your favorite sandwich! You do YOU! After all, you do that the best!
