    Preparation Steps

    1

    First, prepare the yeast starter: in a bowl, combine the warm water and sugar, then crumble in the yeast. Let it stand for 10 minutes, until foamy.

    2

    Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Once the yeast is foamy, add the olive oil and pour it into the flour mixture. Mix well, then knead until you have a smooth dough.

    3

    Cover the dough and let it rest for 1 hour to rise. The ideal temperature is around 77°F (25°C).

    4

    When the dough has doubled in size, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and gently stretch it into a rectangular shape.

    5

    Spread the wasabi paste evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Fold up the edges of the dough slightly to create a border, and gently press the sesame seeds into the dough.

    6

    Let the dough rest for another 15 minutes, then bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

    7

    Once baked, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve fresh.
