Great looking roll recipe from the Marlboro Country Cookbook Morning Fires, Evening Lights (Philip Morris, Inc, 1998). Ingredients:
1 pkg active dry yeast |
3/4 cup warm potato cooking water or milk, divided |
1/2 cup hot mashed potatoes |
1/4 cup butter or margarine |
1/4 cup sugar |
2 tsp salt |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
4 to 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided |
Directions:
1. Soften yeast in 1/4 cup warm potato water. Combine mashed potatoes, butter, sugar, salt and 1/2 cup potato water.
2. Add yeast and egg to potato mixture; stir in 2 cups flour. Add additional flour to make a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
3. Place dough ball in a buttered bowl, turning to butter top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
4. On a well-floured surface, shape into rolls; place on greased baking sheets or in a 13x9 pan; let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/4 hours. Slash tops, if desired.
5. Bake in a 400ยบ oven 12 to 15 minutes.
6. Note: For hot rolls in less time, refrigerate the dough overnight after it has been mixed, kneaded and placed in a covered buttered bowl. Shape into rolls, let rise and bake as directed above. Allow about 1 1/2 to 2 hours from refrigerator to serving time.
