Appetizer Dinner Rolls

How to prepare appetizer dinner rolls

1. Mix the yeast, a teaspoon of honey and 50 ml warm water in a cup and leave in a warm place for 10-15 minutes, until you see foam forming on top, a sign that the yeast is active.
2. Dissolve the rest of the honey in 250 ml warm water.
3. In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the honey water, yeast water and oil. Mix with your hand until the dough comes together. Continue kneading by hand for a few more minutes, then knead one cycle in a bread machine or 3 minutes in a stand mixer on kneading mode. You will get an elastic dough, only slightly sticky.
4. Place the dough in a bowl greased with oil, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1 hour in a warm place (26-30C).
5. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and divide into 8 equal pieces, trying to handle it as gently as possible so you don't break the air bubbles.
7. Form the rolls by pulling the edges of the dough underneath.
8. Place the rolls in a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Put the tray in a large plastic bag making sure it doesn't touch the rolls. Let rise for another 1 hour in a warm place.
9. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200C. Sprinkle a little coarse salt on each roll. Bake the rolls for 10-15 minutes. After 10 minutes, watch them and when they are nicely golden, take them out.
10. They are good warm or at room temperature. They are best in the first 2 days.
