Have egg at room temperature. Heat milk to lukewarm.
Soften butter. Stir the milk and sugar in a large
bowl, sprinkle on yeast, let soften. Beat in 3 1/2
cups flour, cover, let rest 15 minutes. Beat in the
salt and egg, then add the 3 T butter, a little at a
time, as you stir in the remaining whole wheat flour.
Turn out and knead on floured board 10 minutes. Place

Make herb butter with 1/2 lb butter, basil, oregano

Punch down dough, gradually kneading in the cheese.
Divide dough into fourths. Roll each into a circle

with herb butter, cut into wedges, roll up, put on
baking sheet. Cover loosely. Repeat with remaining
dough. Let rise until almost doubled. Brush with egg
wash, sprinkle with a few sesame seeds.
