   • In a mixing bowl, stir together the water, dry yeast, and sugar until combined.
   • Set aside and allow the yeast to bloom for about 5 minutes.

2. Mix Dough:

   • In a separate mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of the all-purpose flour and salt.
   • Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour mixture, stirring to form a sticky dough.
   • Knead the dough, gradually adding the remaining flour until it becomes a smooth, elastic ball, which should take approximately 5 to 8 minutes.
   • If using an electric mixer, start with the paddle attachment to combine the ingredients, then switch to the dough hook.
   • Continue adding flour until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, about 2 to 4 minutes.

3. Let Dough Rise:

   • Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, covering it with a dry cloth or plastic wrap.
   • Allow the dough to rise in a draft-free spot until it doubles in size, which usually takes around 30 minutes.

4. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) while the dough is rising.

5. Shape the Buns:

   • Once the dough has doubled in size, remove it from the bowl and divide it into 8 equal portions.
   • Shape each portion into either flat 5-inch rounds for buns or 6-inch oblongs for hero- or hoagie-style rolls.

6. Final Rise:

   • Place the shaped buns on a lightly oiled baking sheet and cover them with a dry cloth.
   • Allow the buns to rise for an additional 30 to 45 minutes in a draft-free spot.

7. Glaze and Bake:

   • Gently glaze the risen buns with beaten egg.
   • Sprinkle sesame seeds over the glazed buns, if desired.
   • Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.

8. Cool and Serve:

   • Once baked, transfer the Sicilian Panini Buns to a cooling rack until they are ready to be used.
