                  Yeast Bread

    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
       3/4         ounce  Compressed yeast
    3 1/2   fluid ounces  Water -- cool
    2             pounds  Bread flour
    3 1/2         ounces  Light Rye flour
    10             grams  Dough conditioner (optional)
    20             grams  Salt
    20 1/2  fluid ounces  Water -- (temperature controlled)
       3/4         ounce  Cake flour
    7       fluid ounces  Water -- hot
    2             ounces  Eggs
                          Sesame seeds -- as needed

Make the sponge by dissolving the compressed yeast in the cool water 
in a mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add 7 oz (210 grams) of the 
bread flour. Mix for 5 minutes at medium speed. Cover the sponge and 
let it ferment at room temperature until active and bubbling, 
approximately 3 hours.

Add the remaining ingredients to the sponge. Mix on low speed to 
combine all the ingredients, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Stop the 
machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Knead the dough on 
medium speed until fully developed, 7 to 10 minutes.

Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured workbench. Cover and ferment 
the dough for 30 minutes. Divide the dough into three uniform pieces. 
Round the dough, cover and bench rest for another 20 minutes.

Flatten the portioned dough on a cornmeal-dusted workbench into a 12" 
(30 cm) diamond pattern on the surface of the bread.

Place the dough on paper-lined sheet pans. Beat together the cake 
flour, hot water, and eggs in a small bowl until lump free. Brush 
this wash over the loaves. Sprinkle the loaves with sesame seeds. 
Proof until doubled in bulk, approximately 30 to 40 minutes.

Bake at 450F (230C) until dark golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on racks.
