Traditional Rolls

1. 1

   Soften the yeast in warm water (105 degrees which is hot to the touch but not so hot you can't hold your finger in it).

2. 2

   In a large bowl, mix lukewarm milk with sugar and salt, and then add the egg and butter. Add yeast mixture to the bowl.

3. 3

   Mix in the flour in small amounts until the dough comes together and is able to be kneaded. Continue adding flour gradually and kneading until a soft dough is formed. When you have a nice dough that holds together well, place it on a floured board and knead for 10 minutes. (You may use almost a whole 5 pound bag of flour.)

4. 4

   When dough is kneaded, place it in an oiled bowl turning it over once and cover with a clean dishcloth. Place bowl in a warm area.

5. 5

   Let dough rise for 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in bulk. Punch down and shape into rolls or loaf. Place in a greased 11 x 15 x 2 inch pan for rolls or greased loaf pan for loaves and let rise again for 20 minutes.

6. 6

   Bake in a 350 oven for 15-20 minutes (rolls) or 30 minutes (loaf) until golden brown. Brush with butter when they are removed from oven. Number of rolls varies according to how big you make them.
