Step by Step Method

Step 1

Proof yeast in 1/8 cup warm water (I add 1 Tablespoon honey).

Step 2

Add sugar, scalded milk, and butter. Add flour; knead 5 minutes. Let rise until doubled.

Step 3

Punch down; cut into 5 equal pieces. Roll out each piece until they are a thin round shape.

Step 4

While dough is rising, make filling by mixing tahini and sugar together.

Step 5

Spread the filling on each round equally. Roll up jelly-roll style. Let rest, covered with a damp cloth, for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Hold them at both ends of the roll and swing them to make them longer and thinner (That's what the recipe says). Wrap them like a cinnamon roll.

Step 7

Place parchment paper on an oven tray; arrange dough on it.

Step 8

Brush with egg wash; sprinkle with sesame seeds then let rest 10 more minutes (I am guessing until doubled).

Step 9

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 10

Bake for 30 minutes.
