Brass Bakery Yeast Rolls
Photo: Metaweb / CC-BY
1 envelope Active dry yeast
1/4 cup Very warm water
1/3 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Butter or margarine
1 teaspoon Salt
1 cup Scalding hot milk
1 Egg -- lightly beaten
4 1/2 cups Sifted all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons Melted butter or margarine -- for brushing rolls
- Add sugar, 1/4 cup butter or margarine and salt to hot milk. Stir until the sugar dissolves and butter or margarine is melted.
- Cool mixture to 105-115 degrees.
- Add milk mixture to yeast, then beat in egg.
- Beat in 4 cups of flour, 1 cup at a time, to form a soft dough.
- Use some of the remaining 1/2 cup of flour to dust a pastry cloth.
- Knead dough lightly for 5 minutes, working in the remaining flour (use it for flouring pastry cloth and hands).
- Place dough in a warm buttered bowl; turn greased side up.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 60-90 minutes.
- Punch dough down and knead 4-5 minutes on a lightly floured pastry cloth. Dough will be sticky, but use as little flour as possible for flouring your hands and pastry cloth, otherwise rolls will not be as feathery light as they should be.
- Pinch off small chunks of dough and shape into round rolls about 1 1/2-1 3/4 inches in diameter.
- Place in neat rows, a bit apart, in a well-buttered large pan.
-Cover rolls and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, 30-40 minutes.
-Brush tops of rolls with melted butter or margarine; bake in a 375° oven for 18- 20 minutes.
- Serve warm with plenty of butter. Makes 24 rolls
