Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 2 hours; Total time approx. 2 hours 30 minutes

Greek finger bread

Mix the three types of flour, the dry yeast, and the salt. Add the olive oil, honey, and water and knead everything thoroughly into a smooth dough. Place the dough in a bowl, cover, and let it rise for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until it has roughly doubled in size. Punch down the dough and let it rest for about 10 minutes. Divide the dough into 6 portions, first shaping them into rounds and then into slightly oblong shapes. Place the dough pieces very close together on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, cover, and let it rise for about 1 hour. Brush the loaf with milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake in an oven preheated to 200°C for about 45 minutes, until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
