Country Loaf with Figs, Walnuts and Sesame
This generous loaf brings together dried figs, walnut pieces and toasted sesame in a soft crumb, mixed entirely by spoon rather than kneaded by hand. The Ultra Pro doubles as a warm proving box and then a covered tin for the oven. It suits a cheese board just as well as a terrine.

Ingredients
Method
Set the oven to 60°C (140°F).
In the Tupperware Measuring Jug 1 l, blend the yeast with the sugar using the Tupperware Mixing Spoon, working in the water gradually until the mixture turns smooth.
Tip the flour and salt into the Tupperware Mixing Bowl 3.5 l. Add the jug's contents in stages, stirring at length until the dough pulls cleanly away from the sides; work in a touch more flour if it is still sticky.
Toast the sesame seeds dry in the Tupperware Chef Series 20 cm frying pan. Dice the figs finely with the Chef Series paring knife, then fold the sesame, walnuts and figs into the dough.
Settle the dough into the Tupperware Ultra Pro 3.5 l, close the lid and let it prove in the warm oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until it fills the dish.
Without removing the dish, raise the oven to 200°C (400°F) and bake for 45 minutes, lid still on.
Turn the loaf out as soon as it leaves the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
