::Sesame Pancakes

* 6 c. flour
* 1.5 c. boiling water
*0.5 c. cold water
*0.75 c. roux mixture
*0.5 T. salt
*1 T. flour
*0.25 c. white sesame seeds

Method:

1. Place flour in a mixing bowl. Add the boiling water then the cold water of boiling water and cold water mix well. Knead the mixture into a smooth, elastic dough. 2. Lightly oil a surface to roll out the dough. Use a rolling pin to stretch the dough into a sheet, 1.5 t. square. Spread the surface of the square evenly with roux mixture and sprinkle with salt and flour. Roll up the square jelly-roll style; cut it into 20 pieces. Pinch the ends of each piece to keep the filling from spilling out. 3. Place one piece of dough on the board, pinched edges on sides. Place the rolling pin at the one-third mark of the dough; roll out the dough away from you, to about 4-inches. Fold the lower third of the center and fold down the top third. Turn the folded dough vertically. Place the rolling pin at the vertical center and press the dough; fold the dough in half again. Place the rolling pin at the vertical center of the dough and press it down again; fold in half again. Dip the piece of dough smooth side down in sesame seeds. Roll out the dough, sesame seeds side down, into a 6''x3'' rectangular shape. Follow the same step for the other pieces. 4. Preheat oven to 350 F. Bake the breads on a cookie sheet, sesame seeds side down, for 5 minutes; turn the bread sticks over and bake them for 5 minutes or until golden.
