    {"0":"Combine the water, walnut oil, salt, and sugar. Stir in the whole wheat flour, yeast, then enough of the bread flour to make a dough that is difficult to stir.","2":"Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-8 minutes, adding more flour when necessary, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Shape the dough into a ball.","4":"Coat the inside of a large bowl with oil. Add the dough, and turn to coat with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in a warm place about 1 hour, or until doubled in volume.","6":"Punch down the dough, turn it out onto a floured surface, and knead for 1 minute. Pat the dough into a rectangle and sprinkle with the walnuts. Roll the dough, and knead until the nuts are distributed.","8":"Lightly flour a large baking sheet. Cut the dough in half and form each into a ball. Transfer to the baking sheet and flatten lightly. Loosely cover with plastic wrap, and let rise for 15 minutes, until puffy.","10":"Preheat the oven to 425\u00b0F (220\u00b0C). Lightly dust the balls of dough with flour. Cut a square, no more than 1\/4 in (5cm) deep, in the top of each. Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C) and bake for 25-35 minutes or until the bases sound hollow when tapped. Transfer to a wire rack and cool."}
