Dissolve sugar in 1/2 cup warm water in a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast over top. Let stand 10 minutes, then stir briskly with a fork.

Add yeast mixture to 1/2 cup warm water in a large bowl. Stir in 2 cups flour, sesame seeds, and salt. Mix until smooth.

Gradually add enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough.

Turn dough onto lightly floured board and knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes).

Place dough in a lightly greased warm bowl; grease the top of the dough by turning it over once or twice in the bowl.Cover with wax paper and a clean towel.

Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, at least 1 hour.

Line your Dutch Oven with parchment paper

Dutch Oven Campfire BreadCover with greased waxed paper and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Build a fire; getting to a point where you have an appropriate amount of coals will take approx 45 min to an hour. Coals are pieces of the firewood that have broken up into pieces; the wood is mostly charcoal, but they are still on fire and emitting heat.

Once you have enough hot coals (approximately 8 or so for the bottom, 8-10 for the top), make a level space in the firepit and place about 8 coals there.

Remove waxed paper from the dough, and place Dutch Oven lid on top.

Carefully place the Dutch Oven on top of the coals.

Place 8-10 coals on the Dutch Oven lid

Bake 25-30 minutes until golden. Take care in removing the lid – it’s easy to get ash from the coals into your food.
