NO-KNEAD WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
"From County Cork, Ireland" from Jane Kinderlehrer's the Art of Cooking with Love and Wheat Germ (and Other Natural Foods). I am editing the instructions because I made this today and see that they're really weird. Preheat the oven, then make the dough and let it rise for an hour? I don't think so. Also, today I was standing at the health food store thinking, "wheat germ...I think I wanted that for something...oh well." And I didn't get it. So I made the bread with King Arthur's White Whole Wheat Flour and no wheat germ or sesame seeds. It is soooo good. I also cooked it at 350 for 50 minutes along with Melody Ashcraft's Recipe #213228, and it turned out fine. (Does anyone know if you really have to warm the flour up for 20 minutes? Thanks.)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250°F.
- Sprinkle yeast over 2/3 cup lukewarm water and add honey. The yeast should proof.
- Warm flour in a 250°F oven for about 20 minutes.
- Combine molasses and 2/3 cup of lukewarm water and add to the yeast mixture.
- Stir this into the flour.
- Add salt, wheat germ, and 1 1/3 cups lukewarm water. The dough will be sticky.
- Butter a 9"x5" loaf pan and turn the dough into the pan. No kneading is necessary. (When I next make this, I'm planning to divide it into 2 loaf pans because I think smaller, non-mushroom-shaped loaves will be easier and less crumb-y to cut. But if you do this, don't bake it for 50 minutes. That's too long. I'll edit again once I figure that time out.).
- Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top.
- Let rise to about 1/3 more. (45-60 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Bake for 50 minutes until crust is brown.
- Remove pan from oven and cool on rack for 10 minutes. Remove bread from pan and cool completely on rack.
