BUTTERY HERBED DINNER ROLLS



Buttery Herbed Dinner Rolls image

Even if you use an electric mixer to make the dough, you'll have to shape the dough by hand-but it's one of the most fun jobs I can imagine, and it's easy too. Put one piece of dough on the work surface, cup your hand over it, and move it in a circular motion. Relax and enjoy-shaping a tender dough is one of life's natural stress relievers.

Time 6h5m

Yield 18 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup milk, warmed to about 110 degrees F
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly, plus more for the bowl and pan
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly, plus more for the bowl and pan
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Make the dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the milk and yeast and let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. With a fork, stir in the butter, sugar, salt and egg. With the mixer on low, add the flour and then the herbs. Increase the speed to medium and knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
  • Lightly butter a large bowl. Transfer the dough to the bowl, then cover and set in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 4 hours, depending on the temperature of your house.
  • Butter a 13-by-9-inch baking pan. Transfer the dough to a work surface and cut into 18 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a tight ball. Transfer the dough balls to the prepared pan, spacing them evenly (rolls will touch once they have risen). Cover and set in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Finish the rolls: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Very gently brush the rolls with some melted butter and sprinkle with some flaky sea salt. Bake until golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Brush with more melted butter and serve warm.

SAVORY HERB AND PARMESAN ROLLS



Savory Herb and Parmesan Rolls image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon active dry yeast (1/2 packet)
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the bowl
1 large egg yolk
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup finely grated Parmesan
1/2 cup finely sliced scallions
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1 clove garlic, grated
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Hot honey and flakey sea salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
  • For the dough: Heat the milk in a small saucepot over the indirect-heat side of the grill to take the chill off. The milk should be between 110 and 115 degrees F. To the bowl of a mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, add the warmed milk and yeast. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the sugar on top, then let stand for 10 minutes, allowing the yeast to foam.
  • While you're waiting, melt the butter in a small saucepot over the indirect-heat side of the grill. When the butter has fully melted, continue to cook until browned, nutty and fragrant. Set aside to cool slightly. When the yeast mixture looks very foamy, add the browned butter and egg yolk and mix.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, mix together the flour, salt and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, then add to the yeast mixture. Mix until the dough begins to climb the hook and pull away from the bowl. Continue to mix until the dough is shiny and elastic, about 5 minutes. Turn out into a greased bowl, flipping once so the top is coated as well. Cover and let rise in a draft-free place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • For the filling: In the meantime, make the filling and prepare your pan. Combine the Parmesan, scallions, parsley, garlic and 4 tablespoons of the butter in a bowl and season liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Place a 10-inch cast-iron pan over indirect heat and melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 5-by-15-inch rectangle. Spread the filling mixture over the entire surface, leaving a 1/2-inch clean edge on the side furthest away from you. Begin to tightly roll up into a log, pinching at the seam. Using non-flavored dental floss, slice the log into 6 pieces by first cutting in half and then cutting each half into thirds. This will ensure even sizing. Place the 6 rolls into the prepared pan, leaving some spacing in between. Cover and put in a draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
  • Place the pan on the indirect-heat side of the grill and cover the grill with a lid. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the grill and invert onto a plate. Drizzle with hot honey and sprinkle with flakey sea salt. Serve.

ROSEMARY PULL-APART DINNER ROLLS



Rosemary Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls image

As far as holiday dinner rolls go, these are pretty lean. You can increase the amount of melted butter and toss in a egg or two, but since these are generally going to be eaten with fairly rich food, I prefer a lighter approach.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Rolls and Buns

Time 2h55m

Yield 36

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 package active dry yeast
¼ cup warm water (110 degrees F (43 degrees C))
1 cup milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
½ cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 egg
1 teaspoon milk
coarse sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water in a small bowl. Set aside in a warm place until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Combine 1 cup milk and butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook until butter is melted, 3 to 4 minutes; remove pan from heat.
  • Combine 2 cups flour, yeast mixture, honey, 1 teaspoon salt, rosemary, and milk mixture in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook; mix on low until no dry spots remain. Stir in 1/2 cup flour, 2 tablespoons at a time, mixing well after each addition. Continue adding flour until a firm dough forms that pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead on medium until elastic and soft but still tacky, about 6 minutes. Transfer dough to a clean bowl and coat with olive oil. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a clean dish towel and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Transfer dough to a work surface and shape into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Cut into 36 equally-sized pieces. Form each piece into a ball, pinching the seams on the underside, creating a smooth, round top.
  • Lightly beat egg with 1 teaspoon milk in a small bowl.
  • Transfer dough balls to the prepared baking sheet in 3 rows of 12, placing them close together but not touching. Brush tops lightly with the egg mixture and sprinkle with sea salt. Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

HERB-AND-CHEESE ROLLS



Herb-and-Cheese Rolls image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Time 2h25m

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans and brushing
1 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Buttery Yeast Dough, herb variation
All-purpose flour, for dusting
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon

Steps:

  • Butter two 8-by-2-inch round cake pans. In a bowl, combine Parmesan, parsley, thyme, zest, and pepper.
  • Divide chilled dough in half. Roll out one half (keep other half refrigerated) on a lightly floured surface into a 12-by-7-inch rectangle. Spread half of butter over dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Sprinkle with half of cheese mixture (it will seem like a lot), patting to adhere. Starting on a long side, roll dough into a cylinder. Pinch edges to seal; trim ends. Cut into 8 disks. Place, cut-side down, in a prepared pan. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. Drape with buttered plastic wrap; let rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour, 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake until golden brown (tent with foil, if browning too quickly), about 22 minutes. Brush tops with butter; sprinkle with salt. Let cool slightly on a wire rack before removing from pan and serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the rolls tough.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1 hour.
  • Bake the rolls in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Serve the rolls warm with butter or your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Surprise herb rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make bread recipe that is perfect for any occasion. With a variety of herbs to choose from, you can create a unique and flavorful roll that everyone will love.
