Crusty Rolls image

THANKS to Clancy Strock's article mentioning Milwaukee bakeries in a past Reminisce, I was reminded that I, too, missed those hard-to-find, airy, crispy rolls! Years ago, I begged family members living in Chicago to try to find the recipe. My sister-in-law sent me a handwritten recipe, and now I can make these rolls for myself. -Charles Steers, Anaheim, California

These rolls were a little bit too crispy for my taste, but they were still good.

I didn't have any bread flour, so I used all-purpose flour instead. The rolls still turned out great.
