Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams All-purpose flour
- 300 milliliters Warm water
- 50 grams Sesame seeds
- 7 grams Active dry yeast
- 30 milliliters Olive oil
- 10 grams Salt
- 10 grams Sugar
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine 100 grams of the all-purpose flour with the warm water and the active dry yeast. Stir gently, then let it sit for about 10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the remaining flour, 40 grams of sesame seeds, olive oil, salt, and sugar to the frothy yeast mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until a rough dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it for 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle it with a little more flour as needed.
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
Punch down the risen dough to remove excess air, then shape it into a loaf. Place the shaped loaf on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the remaining 10 grams of sesame seeds over the top of the loaf, gently pressing them into the dough so they stick.
Cover the loaf with a dry kitchen towel and let it rise again for 20 minutes.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
