For a loaf of bread

First, pour the warm water into a bowl and dissolve the yeast. Add the salt and vinegar and stir until the salt has dissolved. Then, sift the flour into a bowl and add all but a handful of the kernels, nuts, or seeds. Using a dough hook or by hand, knead everything into a dough. The dough should be sticky and relatively moist; if not, add a little more water. Next, grease the loaf pan and pour the dough into it. Cover with a damp kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan). When the surface of the dough begins to rise slightly, the dough is ready for the oven. Baking time is approximately 1 hour. Before placing the dough in the oven, sprinkle the remaining nuts and/or kernels over it. After baking, let the bread cool slightly and then remove it from the pan. This bread is very versatile and will stay fresh for a long time.
