Preparation
Step 1
Step 1: Preheat oven to 400 degrees f. then mix the water, yeast and honey in the mixing bowl of a mixer with a dough hook. Let it sit for about ten minutes, or until the mixture is foaming, like beer.
Step 2: Add the remaining ingredients and let the machine knead the dough for ten minutes. If the dough is too firm, add a little water during the mixing process. If it's too soft, add a little flour.
Step 3: Divide dough into 16 pieces. Shape into balls, then flatten on a greased cookie sheet.
Step 4: Let rise in a warm place for at least 20 minutes or longer if possible, until doubled in bulk.
Step 5: While the dough is rising, beat the eggs in a bowl to prepare for brushing onto the raised buns.
Step 6: Once the dough has risen, brush with the egg mixture, sprinkle on the sesame seeds, and bake at 400 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes or until the buns are light brown.
