Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Attach the dough hook to heavy duty stand mixer.
  2. In a small cup or bowl mix 1 teaspoon sugar into 1 cup warm water until combined.
  3. Stir in 1 tablespoon plus 1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast and mix gently.
  4. Cover the cup and allow to proof until foamy (about 8 minutes, if the yeast does not foam discard and make again).
  5. Place 5-1/2 cups flour in the stainless steel mixing bowl along with the salt, sugar and 5 tablespoons oil.
  6. After the yeast has proofed add to the bowl along with remaining 1 cup warm water.
  7. Start kneading process adding in more flour a tablespoon at a time as needed to create a soft smooth semi-sticky dough (kneading should take about 8 minutes).
  8. Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface; cover with a clean tea towel and let rest for 3 minutes (this is important, allow to sit for 3 minutes).
  9. Oil a large deep bowl.
  10. Gather up the dough and gently knead into a ball (the dough will come together easily after resting).
  11. Place the dough into the bowl, then cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for about 1 hour or until doubled.
  12. Punch down the dough and remove to a lightly floured surface.
  13. Divide the dough evenly in half.
  14. Cover both pieces of dough and allow to rest for 5 minutes (this will make shaping the dough easier).
  15. Roll each dough into about a 9 x 12-inch rectangle, then roll up jelly-roll fashion starting at long edge.
  16. Seal edges and seam of each loaf.
  17. Grease a large jelly-roll pan then sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons cornmeal.
  18. Place the two long shaped loaves onto the pan seam-side down spacing apart.
  19. Using a razor blade or a small sharp knife slash each loaf 3 times diagonally.
  20. In a small cup whisk an egg white then brush over each loaf.
  21. Sprinkle the tops with about 2 teaspoons seasme seeds for each loaf.
  22. Cover with a clean tea towel and allow to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
  23. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  24. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
