BUTTERMILK ROLLS OR CLASSIC WHITE BREAD

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients except salt.
• Mix egg, and buttermilk and melted butter.
• Add liquids to dry ingredients until a uniform dough is made (may be shaggy at this time).
• Cover and let sit for 20 minutes to strengthen dough.
• Add salt.
• Knead by hand or mixer for 8 minutes. In a mixer, the dough will clean the sides of the bowl, but the bottom may stick some so take time during the kneading to mix the dough from top to bottom once or twice.
• Also during the kneading add flour or water to make a soft and tacky but not sticky dough. Sticky means dough stays on the fingers when touched.
• Test for a windowpane (stretch some to see if it tears or is thin enough to show light through). Knead a little more if necessary.
• Let the dough rise in oiled and covered bowl until doubled (60 minutes or so).
• For rolls: divide into 2 ounce portions and stretch a smooth side to form a ball. Roll with a cupped hand on a clean surface to smooth it out. The ball can take some downward pressure.
• Place on parchment 1" apart, cover and let rise for 20 to 45 minutes or unitl almost doubled in volume.
• For loaves: divide into 2 loaves, shape and place in 8 x 4" pans.
• Let rise covered, for 45 to 60 min until doubled or just shy of doubled.
• Preaheat oven to 400 F and drop temps once bread is placed in the oven.
• Bake loaves at 350F until 205F internally, rotating in oven after 20 minutes.
• Brush rolls with egg-water mixture if desired.
• Bake rolls at 375F until 205F internally (15 to 20 min) rotating the pan half-way during the bake.
• Remove bread from pans or parchment and cool on a rack.

BUTTERMILK ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups of the flour, salt and yeast until well combined; set aside. In a small pot, heat buttermilk until warm to the touch (about 115°F). (Be careful not to overheat the milk since it may cook the egg.) Remove pot from heat and whisk in honey, 3 tablespoons of the butter and egg. Pour buttermilk mixture into bowl with flour mixture and whisk until a thick batter is formed. Stir in remaining 1 3/4 cups flour until a soft dough is formed.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead, dusting dough with more flour as needed to keep it from sticking, until smooth and no longer sticky, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Or, using your kirchenaid or similar mixer, knead the soft dough in the machine for several minutes until the dough is smooth and cool to the touch.
• For cloverleaf rolls, divide dough into 36 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Arrange 3 balls of dough in each cup of a greased 12-muffin tin. For large pull apart rolls, divide dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each into a small ball. Arrange balls of dough snugly in a greased 9-inch round cake pan. Brush rolls with a bit of the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then cover loosely and set aside in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375°F Brush rolls with remaining butter and bake until deep golden brown and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot, spread with butter, if you like.

BUTTERMILK PAN ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add buttermilk, oil and sugar. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; add to yeast mixture and beat until smooth. Do not knead. Let stand for 10 minutes.
• Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; punch down. Shape into 24 balls and place in two greased 9-inch square baking pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks.

UNCLE WHITE'S BREAD MACHINE ROLLS

Steps:

• Place the bread flour, buttermilk, brown sugar, salt, yeast, and egg yolk into a bread machine. Using the Dough setting, allow the machine to mix the ingredients until moist. Pause the cycle and pour in the oil, then let the machine continue to the end of the Dough cycle.
• Grease muffin pans or a baking sheet, and set aside.
• Punch down the dough, and remove it from the machine. Divide the dough into 12 equal parts, form into round, smooth rolls, and place them into the cups of the muffin pans or on baking sheet, making sure the rolls don't touch each other. Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place until double, about 25 minutes.
• While the rolls are rising, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Rub the tops of the hot rolls with a stick of butter for a soft crust, cool the rolls slightly, and serve warm.
