In my house, a meal isn't complete unless a basket of rolls is passed around. Just one rising time makes these fluffy rolls easy to prepare. Harriet Stichter, Milford, Indiana Ingredients:
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°) |
1 cup warm buttermilk (110° to 115°) |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/4 cup shortening |
2 eggs |
1-1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
4 to 4-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
glaze: |
1 egg |
1 tablespoon water |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the buttermilk, sugar, shortening, eggs, salt, baking soda and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough 2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Divide into 18 pieces. Roll each into a 9-in. rope; coil the ends of each rope toward center in opposite directions to form an S shape. Place 3 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 40 minutes. 3. In a small bowl, whisk egg and water; brush over rolls. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen. |
