Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make whole grain bread? Prepare your food. Take refined, odorless vegetable oil. Instead of sesame, you can use cumin, coriander, and peeled seeds. Or cook without any additives at all.

Step 2

Step 2
Pour yeast and sugar into warm (temperature about 38 degrees) water. Stir and leave for 10 minutes to activate. If the yeast is fresh and of good quality, then a “cap” of foam should rise from the top.

Step 3

Step 3
In a bowl for kneading dough, combine two types of flour, salt, pour in activated yeast.

Step 4

Step 4
Mix all ingredients with a spatula.

Step 5

Step 5
Add sesame seeds. Stir until smooth.

Step 6

Step 6
Grease your hands with vegetable oil and knead the dough for 5 minutes. It should become smooth and elastic. If the dough is too stiff, add a little warm water. Too liquid — add a little more flour.

Step 7

Step 7
Transfer the dough to a floured table, roll it out with a rolling pin into a flat cake about 1 cm thick. Grease the surface with vegetable oil.

Step 8

Step 8
Fold the greased cake in several layers, put it back into the bowl and leave in a warm place for 30 minutes, covered with a towel.

Step 9

Step 9
Roll out the rested dough directly on the parchment (I use a silicone baking sheet) on which the bread will be baked, into a rectangular layer 4-5 mm thick.

Step 10

Step 10
Cut the dough into rectangles, defining the boundaries of the future loaves. Prick the loaves with a fork.

Step 11

Step 11
Place the bread in an oven preheated to 200°C and bake for about 15 minutes. The exact time will depend on the characteristics of your oven — the bread should be slightly browned. Remove the finished bread from the baking sheet and cool, dividing into cuts. Serve to the table. Bon appetit!
