Great recipe from La cocina de Mesilda that brings us this spectacular gofio kaiser bread, ideal to accompany meals.

Ingredients

  • 140 gr. of maize flour of gofio

  • 140 g of strong flour

  • 5 gr. of salt

  • Half a teaspoon of dry baker’s yeast

  • 180 to 220 ml. of water

  • FOR BREAD

  • 125 gr. of sourdough (the rest can be stored in the freezer)

  • 280 g of strong flour

  • Half a teaspoon of salt

  • One and a half teaspoons of honey

  • An instant yeast quark

  • One egg

  • One and a half teaspoons of sunflower oil

  • 150 to 180 ml. of warm water

  • Sesame and poppy seeds to cover

Directions

  • We put the two flours, the yeast and the salt in a container.
  • Add 3/4 of a cup of water, and mix until you get a homogeneous dough. (The water is added as the dough asks for it, although it is always better that it is a little sticky than very compact).
  • Finally, knead the dough until it is soft and smooth.
  • Then make a ball and put it in a greased container with oil, cover it with a film and let it rest until it doubles in size.
  • Once it has been lifted, we take the air out gently and we make a ball again, we put it back in the container, covered, and we keep it in the fridge until the next day (you can have the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze it).
  • We take the dough out of the fridge one hour before preparation, cut it into pieces and cover it with a cloth.
  • Mix the flour with the yeast and salt and add the sourdough, the egg, the oil and ten spoonfuls of water, and knead until you get a smooth ball.
  • Lightly grease the surface with oil, put it in a covered container and leave it for two hours or so at room temperature.
  • Then divide into 6 or 9 equal parts, depending on the size you want the rolls.
  • Press them with a KAISER cutter (me with a knife), or with any other round cutter and make little grains on the edges.
  • Place them on a tray in the oven with SILPAT or vegetable paper, spray them with oil and cover them with a plastic sheet until they double in size.
  • Preheat the oven to 220 degrees and place a tray with water on the bottom.
  • Sprinkle the buns with water and sprinkle with the seeds, and when the oven is hot put the buns in and leave for 10 minutes.
  • Lower the temperature to 180 degrees and leave them until they are golden.
