Sage & Leek Bread
Ingredients
Instructions
- Set oven to 400F or Mark6. Melt the butter in a saucepan and soften the chopped leek gently. Put the flours, salt, dried yeast and sage in a large bowl. Make a well and pour in the leek, butter and tepid milk. Beat well together until the dough leaves the sides of the bowl clean. Turn out on to a lightly floured surface and knead well for 10 minutes until smooth. Place in a clean bowl. Cover and leave in a warm place for about one hour until it doubles in size. Turn out and knead well again. Divide into two. Shape into rounds and place on a greased baking sheet. Brush with a little milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Cover and leave in a warm place to rise until double in size (30-40 minutes). Bake for 30 minutes. When cooked the loaves should be golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool on a wire rack.
