In large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, wheat germ, sugar, undissolved yeast, fines herbes, salt, and onion powder. Heat 3/4 cup water, milk, and butter until very warm (120¡ to 130¡F); stir into dry ingredients. ÊÊ Stir in 1 egg and enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on ÊÊ lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Cover; let rest on floured surface 10 minutes.
Divide dough into 18 equal pieces. Divide each again into 3 equal pieces; roll into smooth balls. Place 3 balls in each section of 18 greased 2 1/2-inch muffin pan cups. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.
Beat remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water; brush on rolls. Bake at 400¡F for 12 to 15 minutes or until done. Remove from cups; let cool on wire racks.
