• 1 tablespoon salt

3. Take out the dough and split it in 4 (2 for each bread).
4. Form 4 long rolls and twist by 2.
5. Put the 2 breads in 2 non-sticky pans.
6. Beat the egg and brush each bread with it, then sprinkle the sunflower seeds on top.
7. Put them in the oven to raise again for 45 min at 50ºC.
8. Increase the heat to 180ºC and keep them for another 30 min.

Was it good? There is no need to tell you. Take a look at my daughter tasting a stolen slice:

No chance to take it back and to convince her later to eat her lunch :D
