Perfect Salted Rolls

Step-by-step method

Let’s cook

At a glance

You're making rustic salted rolls that start with activating yeast in a simple starter, then mixing and kneading the dough before letting it rise for about an hour. After shaping the dough into your choice of knots, braids, or classic rolls and giving them a second rise, you'll brush them with egg wash, top them with coarse salt and seeds, and bake them with steam for a soft, crusty finish.

  1. 1/6

    Yeast starter

    Stir about a teaspoon of sugar and a tablespoon of plain flour into lukewarm milk. Mix well. Crumble in the yeast and let the starter activate. It's ready to use once big bubbles form on the surface of the yeast mixture.
