* Herb can be thyme leaves, sweet basil, oregano leaves, rosemary or Italian seasoning. Add ingredients to machine in order given by manufacturer. Select dough/manual cycle. When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to lightly floured surface. If needed, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle. If dough is too elastic, cover and let rest 10 minutes before shaping. Divide dough into 9 equal pieces. Form each into a smooth ball. Place on large greased baking sheet. Flatten balls into 4" rounds; cover. Let rise in warm, draft free place until doubled in size, about 20-30 minutes. Lightly beat egg white and water. Brush on buns. Sprinkle with sesame seed. Bake at 375~ for 12-15 minutes or until done. HOT DOG BUNS: Prepare as above, except shape each portion into a roll about 6-1/2" long, tapering ends. Continue as above.
