I used my favorite bread maker French Bread recipe (they are very similar), but followed your steps from #2 on. These loaves looked and smelled fabulous! It's a big game night tonight and making the bread from scratch today is SOOOOO worth the effort. I love letting the bread maker do most of the work for me. After dividing, rolling, & placing on the baking sheet, is when I make the cut marks (before the second rise). Baked these up early. We had meatball sandwiches. I scooped out some of the bread to have a well for our meatballs, saving the excess for another recipe. The whole egg/water wash gives the bread a lovely shine and the sesame seeds made this look top notch, I use my fingers and do so very gently. Yah baby, this one's great! What a keeper. Will try it in it's entirety very soon, as French Bread is the one bread that will always work for me. Thank goodness. And the taste is superb.
