Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, bread flour, whole wheat flour, and salt. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
2
Add the sesame seeds and mix until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
3
Knead the dough for 10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
4
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for 4-6 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
5
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Punch down the dough and shape it into a round or oblong loaf. Place the loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6
Bake the bread for 35-40 minutes, or until it is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
