I absolutely adore this type of small bread, oil-free and sugar-free, yet it is brimming with the aroma of wheat. Freshly baked, it is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a hint of sesame fragrance – simply irresistible! Participate in the event: #This Week’s Hot List! #Ingredients for Whole Wheat French Bread: Bread Flour 175g, Whole Wheat Flour 75g, Black Sesame Seeds 20g, Water 175g, Fresh Yeast 8g, Salt 4g.
Method for Whole Wheat French Bread: Step 1: Add 75g of water to the whole wheat flour. Step 2: Stir well and refrigerate for at least one night or four hours. Step 3: Place all ingredients except black sesame seeds and salt into a stand mixer. Step 4: Knead until a thick gluten membrane forms, then add salt and black sesame seeds, and mix well. Step 5: Round the dough and seal it for fermentation until it doubles in size. Step 6: Divide the dough into 9 portions. Step 7: Round each portion, pinch the bottom to seal, and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Step 8: Second fermentation in a warm and humid environment (35°C) for 40 minutes. Step 9: Preheat the oven to 200°C, dust the dough surface with flour, and make a slash. Step 10: Place in the lower rack of the oven and bake at 185°C for 16 minutes.
