Dinner Rolls comes in different shapes and sizes

Breads· Uncategorized

Ever expereinced aroma of freshly baked bread, nothing can beat it yeh ? This recipe has been long over due. This is the most basic dinner roll recipe and if followed correctly yields excellent result. I will be teaching this recipe in the very first class of the baking course I am conducting from next week. Which reminds me of very important milestone I am planning to achieve – conducting 5 day long course. I will write a complete post on this topic with details along with tips and pictures.

 

 

Coming back to dinner rolls, they are a good start if you are yet to break your yeast-fear. If you can make them perfectly after couple of tries then you are ready to take on almost all yeast based recipes. Couple of pointers about yeast :

  • Make sure you buy a good quality brand
  • You can use any of the types of yeast, granular or instant. I personally prefer granules due to the fact that it can be verified for its effectiveness before it is incorporated into the dough (more on this later)
  • Always use luke warm liquid while making yeast doughs since too cold or too hot can kill the yeast and affects the fermentation process
  • Dough should be kept in a warm place to rise, it can be placed near a stove, a warm oven or on a kitchen slab depending on the weather conditions.
  • Tradition continues, this post goes to YeastSpotting – monthly event run by Susan.

Ingredients
  1. 2 and 1/4 cup Flour
  2. 2 tablespoon Butter or Ghee (clarified butter) melted
  3. 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  4. 2 tablespoon Sugar
  5. 1 teaspoon Instant Yeast*
  6. 1 egg (half for dough, half for brushing)
  7. 1 cup approximately Luke warm milk to make dough
Instructions
  1. Mix sifted flour, ghee, salt, sugar,1/2 beaten egg and yeast mixture preferably in a food processor with dough attachment.You can also do this by hand.
  2. Slowly add in milk and mix to form dough. The dough should be sticky and out of control at this stage. Remember, we are aiming for softer dough to yield soft light rolls.
  3. Turn it on floured surface and knead with palms of hands for 5 minutes until dough is soft and smooth.
  4. Put the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and keep it covered in warm place for an hour to rise.
  5. When the dough has double in size, punch it down, shape into dinner rolls, place them on greased baking tray and let it rise again for 30 minutes covered in a warm place.
  6. Very lightly, brush with beaten egg.
  7. Bake at 350F in a pre-heated oven for 20 minutes until golden.
  8. They should be hollow when tapped.
  9. Immediately bursh with more melted butter and cove with a tea towel to yield super soft and shiny rolls.
Notes
  1. If using granulated yeast, mix yeast, 1teaspon sugar into 1/8 cup luke warm water until frothy for about 5 minutes.
  2. For garlic knots, mix melted butter, italian spices (like oregano, rosemerry, basil etc.) and crushed garlic. Toss the buns in this mixture and serve.
