3: Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add more flour, but be careful not to add too much flour, as this can cause the dough to become too thick.
4: Let the dough rise
Place the dough in a lightly buttered bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until doubled in size.
5: Form the rolls
Press the dough to remove the air, then divide into 12-16 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball and place in a buttered 9×13-inch baking dish or round pan, leaving a little space between each roll to allow for rising.
6: Second Rise
Cover the dough and let rise again in a warm place for 30-40 minutes, or until doubled in size and puffy.
7: Baking
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown on top. The tops of the rolls should be nicely erect and slightly firm to the touch.
8: Butter and Serve
Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush with melted butter for a soft, delicious finish.
Serving:
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. These rolls are best eaten warm and fresh, but
you can store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two days.
Tips for Success
Make sure the yeast is fresh. If it doesn’t foam during activation, it may be expired, and the rolls won’t rise properly.
Leave the dough to rise in a warm place. If your kitchen is cold, you can place the bowl near a warm oven or in the microwave with a cup of hot water next to it.
You can make the dough the night before and let it rise overnight in the refrigerator. Allow it to come to room temperature before baking.
