Instructions:

  1. Mix the warm water, yeast, and sugar in a small bowl. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes until it becomes foamy.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and stir until a dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until it has doubled in size.
  5. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Divide the dough into three equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long, thin rope. Braid the ropes together and place the braid on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and water. Brush the mixture over the braid and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  8. Bake the bread for 20-25 minutes, until it is golden brown. Let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
