Sesame Bread in the Oven

Bread made with the addition of sesame flour and seeds takes on a bright, nutty aroma and becomes very hearty and nourishing. Sesame flour gives the baked loaf a creamy hue and a pronounced sesame taste.

Instructions

  1. Sift 300–330 g of premium wheat flour into a deep bowl through a fine sieve – this aerates the dough and removes any lumps. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar (it will feed the yeast and give the crust a golden colour) and 1 teaspoon of fine salt. Mix thoroughly with a whisk so that the salt and sugar are distributed evenly through the flour.

    Step 1

  2. Add the sesame flour to the bowl with the mixture.

    Step 2

  3. Combine the dry ingredients and add the instant yeast. If you are using active yeast, pour warm water over it and let it "come to life" (10–12 minutes). The rest of the process for making the sesame dough is identical for any type of yeast.

    Step 3

  4. Pour in the warm water. You can also use milk or whey.

    Step 4

  5. Bring everything together into an elastic ball, working it first with a spoon and then by hand for 8–10 minutes. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky to the hands, but it should not spread – this is a sign of the right consistency. If needed, add flour 1 tbsp at a time if the dough is too sticky, or add a little water if it is too firm.

    Step 5

  6. Cover the bowl with cling film or a clean towel and put it in a warm, draught-free place (26–28°C) for 35–40 minutes. In this time the dough should increase at least 1.5–2 times in size – this means the yeast is working actively and releasing the carbon dioxide that will give the bread its airy texture.

    Step 6

  7. Gently knock back the risen dough, releasing the large air bubbles, and transfer it to a greased baking tin. Smooth the surface with damp hands and sprinkle generously with sesame seeds (1 tbsp), pressing them lightly into the dough. Cover the tin and leave it for a second proving of 25–30 minutes – in this time the bread will rise further and become fluffier.

    Step 7

  8. Place it in an oven preheated to 200°C, on the middle shelf. Bake for 40–50 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Check that it is done by tapping the bottom of the loaf – the sound should be dull and hollow. Remove the bread from the tin and let it cool on a rack for at least 30 minutes – bread sliced while hot will be damp and gummy inside. Store it in a bread box for up to 4 days.
