Directions:
- The Poolish: Combine all of the poolish ingredients, mixing just till a cohesive dough forms. Allow it to rest, covered, for 12 to 16 hours at room temperature. When the poolish is ready, it will be filled with large holes and bubbles.
- The Dough: Add the water to the poolish, and mix till smooth. Add the flour, yeast and salt, and knead the dough till it's fairly smooth but not necessarily elastic, about 3 minutes by machine, or 5 minutes by hand. (The gluten will continue to develop as the dough rises, so you don't want to develop it fully during the kneading process.)
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and allow the dough to rise at room temperature for 1 1/2 hours. To help develop the gluten and distribute the yeast's food, turn the dough twice during the rising time: gently fold all four sides into the middle, and turn the dough over.
- Divide dough in thirds, and roll each third into a 20-inch-long rope. Braid ropes. Set the braid on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until just puffy. Gently brush the braid with the beaten egg white mixture and sprinkle generously with sesame seeds. Bake in a preheated 425°F oven for 25 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack. Yield: 1 loaf.
