Cemita Roll - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups flour (9 oz)
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1 teaspoon yeast
    2 eggs, room temperature
    1/2 cup buttermilk
    1/4 cup canola oil
    1 tablespoon milk
    1 tablespoon water
    1 1/2 cups sesame seeds
Preparation
    In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour,salt, sugar, yeast); whisk together the eggs and oil.
    Heat the buttermilk over low heat until warm (110 degrees F); do not let boil!
    Stir the buttermilk and egg mixture into the dry ingredients until liquid is incorporated; let stand 15 minutes.
    On a lightly floured work surface, knead dough until smooth (it will still be a little sticky).
    Place dough in a oiled bowl, cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
    Depending on how large you want your rolls, divide the dough into eight or four balls, cover, and let rest 15 minutes.
    Take each ball and flatten it to a disc; place each roll on a parchment paper lined baking sheet, a few inches apart.
    Cover baking sheet and let rolls rise for 30 minutes.
    Preheat ove to 400 degrees F; mix milk and water and brush the top of each roll and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
    Bake rolls until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
    NOTE: Bread lasts a day, but freezes well.
