Algeria was once a major wheat exporter and was known as the "Granary of Rome" during Roman times. In the Ottoman era, it supplied Napoleon Bonaparte's armies with tons of wheat for his wars against European armies. Algerian cuisine features many types of bread, such as "matlouh," "khobz eddar," "feteer," "kesra rakhssis," "mbesses," "whole wheat bread," "bran bread," "barley bread," "white flour bread," "puffed bread," "black seed bread," and "walnut rakhssis." Each region has its own specialty. Even breads sold in stores, like "baguette" and "brioche," are popular. The list is long, and with the creativity of Algerian women, we discover many varieties.

Steps

1 hour

1

In a bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, oats, all-purpose flour, nigella seeds, oil, and salt. In a separate bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water and let it activate. Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and start mixing, gradually adding more warm water until you get a soft, smooth dough.
2

Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, adding water as needed until the dough is soft and elastic. Cover and let it rise for the first proof.
3

After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into two loaves. Shape each loaf and place them on a baking sheet dusted with flour. Score the tops with a sharp knife, brush with milk, and sprinkle with nigella seeds and oats.
4

Preheat the oven and bake the loaves until they rise and turn a golden brown color. Remove from the oven when done.

Serve and enjoy!
