I found this on-line It will be a part of my 'authentic' German meal...
Ingredients:
21/2 to 3 cups flour
1 package active dry yeast
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. oil
1 cup warm water
1 egg white
Directions:
1. Pour 21/2 cups flour into a large bowl and form a well in the center. In a separate container, mix yeast, sugar, and two tablespoons of water (the water comes from the 1 cup listed above ). Pour the yeast mixture into the well but do not mix with the flour at this time. Cover the bowl with a cloth and set it in a warm place for 15 minutes. Add the remaining water and oil and beat until mixed.
2. Turn dough out on counter top and knead until smooth. Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour as needed. Put dough in a bowl, cover, and let it rise until double in size. Punch down and divide the dough into 12 parts. Shape into oval rolls and place 3 apart on a greased and floured cookie sheet. Cover and let rise until double in size. Beat egg white and 1 teaspoon water with a fork until frothy and brush on the rolls.
3. Bake in a preheated oven at 450° F for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.
