Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 F.
Combine yeast and water; let stand 5 minutes.
Add milk, flour, salt, sugar, and melted butter; mix until dough forms.
Knead dough for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding flour as needed.
Grease a large bowl, coat the dough, cover, and let rise for 1 hour until doubled.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Punch down dough, knead briefly, and rest for 5 minutes.
Divide dough into 10 (4-ounce) portions.
Shape portions into balls, flatten slightly, and place on baking sheets.
Firmly stamp the tops (if using a stamp), dust with flour, then invert rolls; otherwise, simply flatten.
Cover rolls and let rise until doubled, approximately 25-35 minutes.
Sprinkle rolls with cornmeal, then invert them to reveal the stamp impression.
Whisk egg and water for an egg wash, brush over buns, and sprinkle with seeds.
Bake for 16-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
