Bread with seeds

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   I learned about how to bake bread with seeds from my grandmother. I am sharing with you a recipe that is passed down in our family from generation to generation. We take all the products we need.

2. Step 2:

   

   To prepare the dough, sift rye and wheat flour, add bran.

3. Step 3:

   

   We make a hole in the flour mixture, pour our whey into it (do not forget that the whey or any other liquid should be warm, instead of whey you can just take water or milk or a mixture of water and milk), add honey and yeast.

4. Step 4:

   

   Leave for 5 minutes so that the yeast dissolves.

5. Step 5:

   

   Now add salt and vegetable oil (you can also add some seeds or nuts to the dough to taste) and knead the soft dough. Flour may need a little more, focus on the dough, if suddenly it turned out to be too hard, then add a couple of spoonfuls of water. We leave the finished dough to rise for 40-60 minutes, until it increases in volume, let the dough come up twice.

6. Step 6:

   

   After the second time, we knead the dough well and form bread rolls. You can just roll the dough into a bun, or you can, like me, spread the dough into a layer (just stretch it with your hands).

7. Step 7:

   

   Roll up, pressing the dough at the same time.

9. Step 8:

   

   You should get such a roll.

10. Step 9:

    

    We pour our seeds on the table (you can use seeds, nuts or spices, for example, cumin, coriander, choose what you like).

11. Step 10:

    

    The formed bread is smeared with egg white on top.

12. Step 11:

    

    Then turn the greased side over onto the seeds. In this form, the bread rolls are transferred to a baking sheet and left to rise for about an hour. It may take more or less time, depending on the room temperature, the presence of drafts and yeast activity.

13. Step 12:

    

    Before baking on the bread, you can make one incision in the center, but this is not necessary at all.

14. Step 13:

    

    Bake bread in a preheated oven first at 200C with steam (to do this, put a baking tray with boiling water on the bottom of the oven) for 15 minutes, then pull out the baking tray with water and reduce the temperature to 170C and bake for another 25-30 minutes. We give the finished bread to cool completely! Bon appetit!
