Although they take a little time to prepare, they're really not all that difficult to make. And there's nothing in the stores that can compare to them! -Jean Fox, Welch, Minnesota

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water.
- Sprinkle yeast into water.
- Allow to stand until yeast is dissolved and begins to bubble (or proof).
- Add oil, poppy seeds (if using) and 3 1/2 cups of the flour.
- Stir with a wooden spoon until all ingredients are well mixed.
- At this point, the mixture will be the consistency of a mash.
- Continue to add flour in batches until mixture becomes too stiff to easily stir.
- Turn out mixture onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, adding more flour as needed to keep dough from sticking to surface or hands.
- When dough is "ready", it should be smooth, supple and stretchy.
- Grease a medium bowl.
- Form dough into a ball.
- Place in greased bowl, turning to coat ball on all sides.
- Cover bowl with a clean dish towel and put in a warm, draft-free place to rise until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
- I like to place my bowl in the oven with just the light on.
- When doubled, punch dough down and slap it around to get out all the air bubbles.
- At this point, dough can be refrigerated for future use or divided and formed into the desired shape (ie. dinner rolls, cloverleaf rolls, hamburger buns, etc.).
- Once formed, place on ungreased cookie sheet, cover again and allow dough to rise until doubled again which will take about 1/2 hour (longer if dough was refrigerated).
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. The larger the roll, the longer it will take to bake it.

Tips:
- Prep the potatoes ahead of time: Boil and rice the potatoes the day before or up to 3 days in advance. This will save you time on the day you're making the rolls.
- Use a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook: This will make the process of kneading the dough much easier.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place: This will help the dough to rise properly and give you light and fluffy rolls.
- Shape the rolls into any shape you like: You can make them into traditional round rolls, or you can get creative and make them into different shapes, such as braids or knots.
- Bake the rolls until they're golden brown: This will ensure that they're cooked through and have a nice crust.
