    Main dough:
    – 480g bread flour
    – 90g whole grain flour. I used hard white. (15%)
    – 30g buckwheat flour (5%)
    – 450g water (75%)
    – 120g levain
    – 13g salt
    – 80g (approximately) sesame seeds

    Method:
    – Autolyse 4h.
    – Add starter (was fed 1:1:1, took 6h to double) + 30min rest.
    – Add salt and seeds gradually while mixing. Let rest for 30min.
    – 2 sets of coil folds, 45min apart.
    – wait until bulk ferment is over. My indicator is typically 50-60% vol increase.
    – 20min bench rest
    – shape
    – cold proof overnight in the fridge (10h)
    – Preheat to 500F, load loaf, reduce to 350F and spray a good amount of water with a spray bottle. Bake for 20min. Open bake with hotel pan filled with water.
    – turn oven back on to 450 and continue baking for 30min.

    this looks amazing. how did you incorporate the sesame seeds? Does the bread taste like buckwheat?

  4. This is beautiful!

    Does the flavor of the buckwheat come through in the final loaf? I don’t think I’ve ever had buckwheat in bread before.
