   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2               cups  barley flour
   2        tablespoons  sesame oil
   4               cups  whole wheat flour
      1/2           cup  millet meal -- see note
   1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
   2        tablespoons  corn oil
   3 1/2           cups  boiling water

You can substitute cracked roasted sunflower or sesame seeds for the 
millet meal.

Pan roast the barley flour in the sesame oil until darkened. Mix it 
together with the flour, meal and salt.

Add the corn oil, rubbing the flour between your hands until it becomes oily.

Add the boiling water a little at a time, mixing with a spoon until a 
dough begins to form, then mixing with your hands. Keep your hands 
cools by dipping them in a bowl of cold water. Mix the dough until it 
has an earlobe consistency, then knead it until smooth.

Place the dough in an oiled pan. Cut the top lengthwise, making a 
deep wedge in the loaf. Proof 2 to 6 hours or overnight.

Bake at 450F for 20 minutes on the middle shelf, then 400F for 40 
minutes on the top shelf. The crust will be tough but the inside 
tender. You can also try baking at 350F for 90 minutes.
