What's the secret, how do you get the seeds to stick to the bread ? 

I want a nice soft bun with seeds on top, (like a big mac bun). I just end up with a tray full of seeds and nothing on top  Someone tell me the magic spell which sticks the seed to the bun please.

I give mine a quick spray with water before I put sunflower seeds on and then leave to rise -spose it would work the same with sesame seeds 

[Lardman]

After the spray, do you sprinkle, press or dip ?

[mumofstig]

Sprinkle then just pat with my pandy

[Mrs Bee]

Egg wash, then sesame seeds

[mumofstig]

I found the egg wash made the tops brown and crispy when I was aiming for soft and pale 

[Lardman]

Not sure what I can be doing wrong then.  I've tried the water, sprinkle / pat , but I did it after letting them rise.

Will egg wash always make the roll crispy even if using a soft roll recipe?

[Mrs Bee]

I mix the egg with water to thin it.
