  12. 12.Each piece should be about 5 1/2 long and 2 in the middle, tapering to each end.
  13. 13.Place rolls on a greased baking sheet, cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 25 minutes.
  14. 14.Meanwhile heat oven to 375F degrees.
  15. 15.Mix cornstarch and cold water, heat stirring constantly to boiling, boil until thickened and clear about 2 minutes.
  16. 16.Brush each roll with the cornstarch mixture.
  17. 17.Slash each roll down the middle stopping about 1/2 from each end and cutting about 1/2 deep.
  18. 18.Bake until the rolls are brown and sound hollow when tapped, about 30-35 minutes. Remove from baking sheets and cool on racks.
  19. 19.Serve warm & fresh from the oven.
