Spicy Cheese Bread Goes Global
Stella’s Hot and Spicy Cheese Bread has long been a staple of the Dane County Farmers’ Market. The huge loaves are stuffed with gooey hot cheese, flecked with red pepper and are best eaten by tearing off a huge hunk as you stroll around contemplating eating more vegetables. And now, Brian Winzenried of the famed Stella’s family is taking the cheese bread to Panama. What began as a pandemic trip has blossomed into a new business venture, opening this spring. Not only can you enjoy a taste of home while on vacation, but you can learn to bake alongside Brian in his new kitchen, Gamboa Baking Co.
And here‘s how you can celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. this weekend:
- “I Have A Dream” Scholarship Ball at Monona Terrace on Saturday
- Ecumenical Service at First Unitarian on Sunday
- Youth Call to Service at Central Library on Monday
- Madison-Dane County celebration at Overture on Monday
- State of Wisconsin celebration at the State Capitol on Monday
