Bread Loaf Bound with Papyrus Strips
Bread loaf bound with papyrus strips becomes an emmer fig loaf inspired by ancient baking. A parchment tie shapes the dough as it bakes around honeyed figs and sesame for a rustic table bread.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Bread)
Soak chopped figs briefly, then drain and pat them dry.
Mix flours, starter, honey, salt, and water into a firm dough.
Fold in figs and sesame seeds, then shape a short oval loaf.
Tie loosely with a food-safe parchment strip to echo papyrus binding.
Bake until browned, remove the strip, and cool before slicing.
