Hi,Kay
Cooked dough should be added when the dough is still hot, and mixed evenly before it cools down. This small bowl of water will be used later. After the dough is dipped in water, more sesame seeds can be stuck to the surface, and they are very firm and will not fall off.

Or should we add when the dough is still warm? If so, what is the small bowl of cold water for? Appreciate the clarity. Thank you for posting this recipe!

If you think it is too runny, you can cook it for a while longer to dry out the water and reach an ideal state. There is not much difference between powdered sugar and granulated sugar.

Or do you recommend another recipe using different measurement, ratio, or other type of sugar?
