    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2 1/2      teaspoons  active dry yeast
    3               cups  lukewarm water
    1         tablespoon  agave syrup
    1         tablespoon  blackstrap molasses
    2               cups  all-purpose flour -- or white bread flour
    2               cups  whole-wheat flour
       1/4           cup  canola oil
    1         tablespoon  salt
    2               cups  cooked quinoa
    3               cups  whole-wheat flour -- as needed (3 to 4c)
    1                     egg -- beaten with
    2        tablespoons  water -- for egg wash
    1         tablespoon  sesame seeds

In a large bowl, combine the yeast and water and stir until 
dissolved. Stir in the agave syrup and molasses. Whisk in the flours, 
1 cup at a time. Stir or whisk this mixture 100 times, for about two 
minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a spatula, cover the 
bowl with plastic and leave to rise in a warm spot for one hour, until bubbly.

Add the oil to the sponge and fold in, using a large spoon or 
spatula. Add the salt and fold in. Fold in the quinoa, then fold in 2 
cups of the whole-wheat flour. Place another 1/2 cup whole-wheat 
flour on your work surface, then scrape out the dough. Use a paddle 
to help fold the dough over while kneading until it has absorbed the 
flour on your work surface. Flour your hands, and knead the dough for 
10 minutes, adding flour as necessary, until it is elastic and 
springs back when you press it with your finger. It will be dense and 
sticky. Shape the dough into a ball. Rinse and dry your bowl, and 
coat it with oil. Place the dough in it, then flip the dough over so 
that it is coated with oil. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap, 
and set in a warm spot to rise for one hour or until doubled.

Punch down the dough, cover the bowl and allow the dough to rise 
again for 45 minutes to an hour.

Preheat the oven to 375F. Divide the dough into two parts, and shape 
into loaves. Place half of the sesame seeds on your work surface, and 
gently roll the rounded side of one loaf over them so that they 
stick. Repeat with the remaining sesame seeds and the other loaf. Oil 
two 9-by-5-inch bread pans, and place the loaves in the pans, first 
seam side up, then seam side down. Cover with a damp towel and allow 
to rise for 30 minutes, or until the surface of the loaves rises 
above the edges of the bread pans.

Gently brush the loaves with egg wash. Using a sharp knife, cut two 
or three 1/2-inch-deep slashes across the top of each loaf. (If this 
causes the loaves to deflate, let them sit for another 15 to 20 
minutes.) Bake 50 to 55 minutes, brushing again halfway through with 
egg wash. The bread is done when it is golden brown and responds to 
tapping with a hollow sound. Remove from the pans and cool on a rack.
