Yield Makes about 30 slices

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large egg whites
3/4 cup superfine sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup hulled sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 300 degrees. Line an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-by-2 1/2-inch loaf pan with parchment paper, and set aside. Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on high speed, until frothy.
  • While whisking, very slowly add the sugar, and continue whisking until sugar has completely dissolved and the meringue is stiff, about 5 minutes. Fold in flour until combined. Fold in the sesame seeds.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and bake until the meringue is set and lightly browned, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from oven, turn out bread, and place on a wire rack to cool. When cool, slice as thinly as possible, using a serrated knife. Lay the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet, return to oven, and bake until slices are lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
