TOASTED SE SAME—WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
In the early 1970s I used to buy a moist, dense whole wheat bread at Barbara’s Bak-
ery, a small Palo Alto bread shop owned by entrepreneur Murray Jaffe. This was their
signature bread, and if you didn’t get there before noon, it would be sold out. Two es-
sential tips for the best flavor and texture: use cold-pressed sesame oil, which is paler
in color and milder than the toasted sesame oil used in Asian foods, and use fine-grind
whole wheat flour.
