PAN DE SAL - FILIPINO BREAD ROLLS
I grew up eating pan de sal for breakfast or merienda (snack). My favorite was Baliwag-style, enriched with milk, butter and egg. Knead dough in bread machine, then shape and bake in regular oven. Breadcrumbs provide that distinctive crunchy crust. Masarap (delicious)! **Dough ball should be as sticky as the back of a Post-it Note. Otherwise, add up to 2 TBL of flour or water, as needed.**

- Select "Dough" cycle; Add all ingredients, EXCEPT for breadcrumbs, in the order your machine requires.
- First Rise: When the machine is done kneading, the dough will be sticky (gooey dough means moist pan de sal); Place dough in a bowl greased with Pam spray and spray top of dough with more Pam; Cover and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes, or until doubled in volume (To test: gently poke dough with two fingers; if it leaves an impression without springing back, it is doubled).
- Second Rise: Gently deflate dough with your fist, then use a plastic spatula to divide dough into 24 ovals and roll them in the breadcrumbs.
- Line up ovals in a 9x13" ungreased cake pan with the rolls touching; that way, the pan de sal use each other for height support and not spread out like ciabatta; Let rise a second time for 30 minutes; Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 deg. F.

Tips:
- Use bread flour or all-purpose flour with a high protein content to give the bread rolls a chewy texture.
- Activate the yeast in warm water with a little sugar before adding it to the dough. This will help it to proof properly.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour and give the bread rolls a good structure.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place for at least an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will give the yeast time to work and produce carbon dioxide, which will make the bread rolls light and airy.
- Shape the dough into rolls and place them on a greased baking sheet. Let them rise for another 30 minutes before baking.
- Bake the bread rolls in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Serve the bread rolls warm with butter or your favorite spread.
