Persian Barbari Bread with Toasted Sesame

Long, oval barbari has deep finger-pressed grooves, a glossy golden crust and a generous coat of sesame seeds. The secret is a quick flour-and-baking-soda glaze called roomal that gives the top its signature shine and crunch. Tear it warm at breakfast with feta, herbs, butter and sweet tea.
