INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, combine the sugar, salt, yeast, and flour. In a small
saucepan, heat the milk and butter over medium heat until very warm (about
125 degrees). With a wooden spoon, gradually stir the warmed liquid
into the dry ingredients, adding more flour by the tablespoon, if
necessary, to make a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured
surface and knead until smooth about 10 minutes. Shape the dough into a
ball, and place in a large greased bowl. Brush lightly with olive oil, then
cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about
30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grease a large baking sheet.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and water until blended. Punch down the dough
and place on the baking sheet. Shape into a 14-inch-long loaf. Brush the
top of the bread with the egg mixture and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Cut
two diagonal slashes on top of the loaf. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until
the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool on a wire rack.
