Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups All Purpose Flour sodium free
  • 2 1/4 tsp Dry Instant Yeast
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 1 1/2 cup Water Must be warm to activate the yeast
  • 1 large Egg for glazing
  • 2 tbsp Sesame Seeds, Poppy Seeds, or Herbs for garnish & flavor

Instructions
 

  • Add 3 3/4 cups flour into a mixing bowl, add the yeast and mix well to incorporate the yeast. Add the oil and warm water and mix to make the batter.
  • the batter will form a thick dough. Place your dough on a clean lightly-floured surface and begin to knead. You should spread out a little bit of flour flour to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands, rolling pin, or the work surface. Knead dough until it becomes smooth and stretchy.
  • Lightly oil a mixing bowl. Place your dough in it, and cover with a moist but not soaked towel. Place the bowl with dough in a warm spot (like a preheated oven with the heat turned off) and allow to rise until dough has doubled in size. It should take about 1 hour.
  • Once dough has risen, bring your dough back to your lightly-floured surface. Knead until smooth and pliable, then cut dough into 12 equal portions. Form each portion into a round roll. Arrange rolls on a oiled baking sheet and cover again with a moist towel. Place back in your oven that is warm but not on. Let the rolls rise again, until they are double in size. It should take about 30 minutes.
  • Once rolls have risen, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Take off the towel from the baking sheet. Break an egg into a bowl and whisk with a fork to create a wash. Lightly brush surface of the rolls with the egg-wash, then sprinkle seeds of choice or herbs over top if desired. Place pan on middle rack in oven and bake 15 minutes for a soft golden brown color or 20 minutes for a deeper brown.
  • Remove pan from oven and place rolls on a wire rack to cool. Serve heated with unsalted butter.
