Golden Sesame Bread

Such promise, they look great.  Four round loaves waiting for the steamed bbq.

Drats!  Another Peter Reinhart failure!  I have some sort of curse when it comes to his bread recipes.   This time while attempting to save our garden worms from pouring rain, the bread burned.  I thought when I opened it all would be fine; however, it was dense, yeech.  I am going to take a long Reinhart bread recipe break and focus on my more successful bread books: James Beard, Carol Field, Bernard Clayton...

I will continue to make his flat bread and cracker recipes because they are great.
