Blend well and allow it to swell for a few minutes. Lägg matskedsstora klickar på plåten. Bred ut dem lite med en sked och strö över lite sesamfrö. Grädda mitt i ugnen i cirka 15 minuter. Låt svalna på galler. / Spoon tablespoon sized clicks on the baking tray. Spred them out a bit with a spoon and sprinkle over a little sesame seed. Bake in the middle of the oven for about 15 minutes. Allow to cool on a baking rack.

Tips! Frys in de bröd som inte går åt. Bröden blir bäst av att tinas i brödrost eller ugn. Då blir de som nybakade!/ Tip: Freeze the bread that you don't eat. The bread is best thawed in the toaster or oven. It'll taste just baked!









Today I purchased a new cookbook called " LCHF för Familjen " which translates in English to "LCHF for the Family". I was actually in the bookstore to pick up a LCHF baking cookbook but ended up leaving with this one because it seemed to have recipes that were relevant to my lifestyle. I wanted recipes that weren't so far off with what I am likely to make on a daily basis, and I liked the idea of getting my daughter accustomed to not eating excessive carbs. I have had a block of halloumi cheese sitting in my fridge forever so I thought that this would be a good recipe to try. I deviated from the original recipe with the use of sesame seeds. The original recipe calls for white sesame seeds. I didn't have any, I only had furikaki on hand (a Japanese condiment designed to sprinkle on rice). My furikaki had black and white sesame seeds, seaweed and red shiso leaves. The seaweed gave it a bit of a fishy taste, making this good to go with the salmon that I was preparing for dinner. The following is the recipe in Swedish and then my English translation. My verdict? It's not very "breadlike" but that may be because I was really expecting it too be. It does seem like a decent side dish however, kinda like a chewy pancake. I can imagine it to be good as an appetizer. Perhaps topped with some smoked salmon and some sort of mayonaise based sauce with a sprig chive to dress it up.10-12 pieces/psyllium husk
