Bread has become a staple at home now...I bake rather than buy my bread now, which has become very therapeutic for me. Of late there has been a lot of experimentation using bread dough and the results have been mixed. So when the World Bread Day was announced, the sesame bread that I made is what I narrowed down for the event.
A blog that I recently discovered is thepassionate cook andthe blog is what you could call my tea companion.. A pumpkin seed and sesame bread is what I made first but it didn't turn out rise because the yeast failed me. The second time around, I had no pumpkin seeds, but replaced them with sunflower seeds.
I used her exact measurements except for the use of sunflower seeds. The recipe is for the awesome loaf is here. Do not use dry yeast because then you have to compromise on the flavour... And you could also use other seeds..the possibilities are endless...
The bread rose well, baked well, browned well and when toasted and dabbed with butter, it is entirely a different thing in the way you bite into the seeds in the toasted slice... A very nutritious loaf!
This bread is my contibution to:
