Garlic-Scallion Rolls

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 teaspoons Kosher salt, divided
  • 2 teaspoons sugar, divided
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled, cubed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped scallions
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh garlic greens
  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil plus more for bowl and brushing
 

Directions

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pour 1/2 cup warm water (105°-115°) into a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon sugar over; let stand until mixture bubbles, about 10 minutes.

Place flour, butter, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1 teaspoon sugar in bowl of a stand mixer with dough hook attached. Rub in butter with fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Beat in egg, yolk, and yeast mixture, scraping down sides.

Knead on medium speed until dough is soft and smooth, about 5 minutes. Form dough into a ball; transfer to a large, lightly oiled bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Meanwhile, combine scallions and cilantro in a food processor and pulse to finely chop. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl; stir in all sesame seeds and 3 tablespoons oil and set aside.

Preheat oven to 350°. Roll dough into a 18×9″ rectangle. Spoon scallion mixture evenly onto center and spread mixture to corners of dough. Working from one short edge, roll dough rectangle into a cylinder. Cut cylinder into 3/4″ dough swirls. Transfer dough swirls to prepared baking sheet; brush with oil. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes.
