BREAD MACHINE SESAME FRENCH BREAD
I make this bread often, especially when I want a bread that has a bit more body than a white bread, but not as rustic as a traditional French bread. I think the sesame seeds give it a really nice flavor. It makes about a 1 1/4 lb. loaf. Unfortunately, I can't remember where on the web I found this.

Steps:
- Place all the ingredients into the bread machine according to manufacturer's directions.
- Bake using french bread cycle if your machine has it.
- If not, use the dark crust white cycle.
- Start with 2 3/4 cups flour, you might need more depending on a lot of factors.
- My favorite way to get the texture I like is about 10 minutes into the knead cycle I will pinch a good size chunk of dough between my thumb and two or three fingers.
- If it feels just moist and some dough sticks to my fingers, it's just right.
- If no dough sticks, it's a bit dry and add a few teaspoons of water.
- If it feels too soft and very sticky, add more flour until you get the right consistency after about another 5 minutes of kneading.
