Preparation method

How do you make this?

Mix water, yeast, and salt together. Let it sit for a moment. Put the flour and salt in a large bowl or in the bowl of your food processor. Stir briefly with a fork. Add the water mixture and knead by hand or for at least 10 minutes with your hook attachment. Let it rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour under plastic wrap.

Now we are going to fold the dough. No worries, you’ve folded plenty of T-shirts, you can do this too. Flatten the dough with both hands. Scrape the sides loose with a spatula. Now fold the top, then the bottom, and then the two sides back in. Let it rest for 15 minutes.

Now shape the dough into a ball, using some flour. The dough is a bit sticky, but ignore that and just continue. Put the pumpkin and flax seeds on a plate, lightly rub the dough ball with some water, and then press the dough into the flax and pumpkin seeds.

Place the seed-topped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with a clean towel and let it rest for 45 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 210 °C. Bake for 40 minutes in the oven at 210 °C. Let cool.

Grate the comté cheese.

Cut thick slices of bread, toast them in the toaster or fry them in a pan with some olive oil or butter.

Top with some pieces of kimchi and then a good heap of grated comté cheese.

Place in the oven under the grill until the cheese is nicely melted.
