Cooking description:

Many people like very soft bread, so I decided to share this recipe with you. Please note that such bread is not very high in height, but it is thanks to this that its crumb is very porous. Since this bread is made with sourdough, it is also very healthy, especially when it contains olive oil and black sesame seeds. You can replace olive oil with another vegetable oil, but it is olive oil that will give the finished baked goods a pleasant nutty flavor.
