Stir in 3 1/2 cups flour until dough is tacky but not sticky. (If dough is sticky, stir in more flour.) Transfer to a work surface dusted with flour. Knead with floured hands, dusting more flour onto hands and surface as needed, until dough is elastic and springs back when pressed with a finger, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer dough to a large bowl brushed with butter. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. The dough can be made up to this point and left torise up to 12 hours in the refrigerator; remove from refrigerator 1 hour before proceeding.
• Punch down dough. Form into a ball and place on a clean, undusted work surface. Quarter dough, then divide each quarter into 4 pieces. Form each piece into a ball and space evenly on two rimmed baking sheets that are generously dusted with cornmeal (8 per sheet). Loosely cover and let rise until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Beat remaining egg. Brush tops of rolls with egg, then slash a 1/4-inch-deep X in tops. Lightly dust with cornmeal and sprinkle with flaky salt.
• Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until rolls are puffed, golden, and hollow-sounding when tapped on bottoms, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a basket lined with a clean towel and cover to keep warm until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine warm milk, water, and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add 3 egg yolks, salt, butter, cornmeal, and flour; mix on low speed for 2 minutes. Change to dough hook attachment; beat until dough is smooth, soft, and does not stick to your fingers when squeezed, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer dough to a clean surface. Knead into a ball; place in a bowl brushed with oil. Cover securely with plastic wrap; let stand in a warm place until dough has doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
• Punch back the dough, and divide into 12 balls (2 1/4 ounces each). On a clean surface, using the palm of your hand, roll dough gently, pressing down while rolling to shape into a 2 1/4-inch-diameter ball. Place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat rolling until all the dough is used. Loosely cover with oiled plastic wrap. Let stand in a warm place to rise for 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine remaining egg yolk and the remaining tablespoon milk. Brush tops of rolls with egg wash. Sprinkle rolls with cornmeal. Bake until deep golden brown, rotating pan once during baking, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit to proof some.
• In a large bowl combine the cornmeal and salt.
• Heat the milk (about 115 degrees), butter, and honey in a saucepan and add slowly to the cornmeal, stirring all the time.
• Add 3 cups of the flour and mix well.
• Add yeast mixture stirring well.
• Add the rest of the flour gradually to make a stiff dough.
• Knead 100 times and place in a greased bowl to rise till double--about 1 hour.
• Punch down and rise again till double for about 1/2-3/4 hour.
• Turn onto floured counter and divide into two pieces.
• Form into 2 loaves and put in greased pans.
• Rise again till double.
• Bake 375 degrees for about 40-45 minute.
• If they start getting too brown, cover with aluminum foil.

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer proof the yeast with the sugar in 1/4 cup of the water for 10 minutes, or until the mixture is foamy. Beat in the remaining 1 cup water, the cornmeal, 2 1/4 cups of the flour, and 2 teaspoons of the salt and with dough hook knead the dough for 5 minutes. Knead in enough of the remaining 1/2 cup flour so that the dough pulls away from the side of the bowl but remains sticky. Turn the dough out into a large bowl, dust it with flour, and let it rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours, or until it is double in bulk. Punch down the dough. The dough may be made up to this point 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Let the dough rise again, covered, in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours (longer if the dough was chilled), or until it is double in bulk.
• Punch down the dough, knead it lightly on a lightly floured surface, and divide it into 16 pieces. Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, keeping the other pieces covered, form the dough into different shapes such as knots and wreaths. (To form wreaths, shape the dough into rings and with scissor snip the out edges at intervals.) Arrange the rolls as they are formed on a greased baking sheet. (Use a black-steel baking sheet for crustier rolls.) Let the rolls rise, uncovered, in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until they are almost double in bulk, brush them lightly with the egg, and sprinkle them with the seeds and the additional salt. Bake the rolls in the upper third of a preheated 450°F. oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Serve the rolls warm.
