4. Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and let it rest at room temperature (70–75°F) for 30 minutes to autolyse, which helps develop gluten.
5. Perform a series of stretch-and-folds: grab one edge of the dough, pull it up, and fold it over the center. Repeat around the bowl 4–5 times.
6. Cover the bowl again and let the dough bulk ferment for 4–6 hours at room temperature, until it has doubled in size and looks bubbly.

8. Place the shaped dough seam-side up in a well-floured proofing basket or bowl lined with a floured kitchen towel.

10. Preheat your oven to 450°F with a Dutch oven or baking stone inside for at least 30 minutes.
11. Carefully transfer the dough from the proofing basket onto a piece of parchment paper. Score the top with a sharp knife or lame in a decorative pattern, about ¼ inch deep.
12. Place the dough with parchment into the preheated Dutch oven, add a couple of ice cubes next to it for steam, and cover with the lid.
13. Bake covered at 450°F for 25 minutes to trap steam and create a crispy crust.
14. Remove the lid, reduce the oven temperature to 425°F, and bake uncovered for another 20 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
15. Transfer the loaf to a wire rack and let it cool completely for at least 2 hours before slicing. Tip: Cutting too soon can make the bread gummy, so patience is key!

– 1 tablespoon of honey
– 1 teaspoon of salt
– A splash of olive oil for greasing
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, combine the warm water, honey, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
2. Tip: If the yeast doesn’t bubble, your water might be too hot or cold—start over for best rise.
3. Add the bread flour, black sesame seeds, ground flaxseed, and salt to the yeast mixture.
4. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes.
5. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
6. Tip: To test if it’s kneaded enough, poke the dough—it should spring back slowly.
7. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
8. Punch down the dough to release air, then shape it into a round loaf on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
9. Cover loosely and let it rise again for 30 minutes.
10. Preheat your oven to 375°F while the dough rises.
11. Score the top of the loaf with a sharp knife in a cross pattern, about ¼ inch deep.
12. Tip: Scoring helps control expansion and gives that artisan look.
13. Bake at 375°F for 35–40 minutes, until the crust is dark golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
14. Cool completely on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before slicing.
You’ll love the dense, moist crumb speckled with sesame and a subtle earthy sweetness from the flax. This bread is perfect toasted with avocado or as a base for nut butter—get creative and enjoy every slice!
