- 4 cups bread flour
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 2 t. salt
- 2 1/2 t. instant yeast SAF brand is the best
- Cornmeal and flour for dusting
Combine your ingredients and knead into a soft smooth dough, preferably in a bread machine on the dough cycle. Cover and allow to rise until doubled. (The bread machine will take care of this, and will beep when done.)
Divide into 10 equal pieces using a sharp knife. Shape into rolls, pinching the bottoms until the tops are smooth.Prepare your baking sheet by either spraying with non-stick spray or covering with parchment, then dust with cornmeal. Rub flour on top of the rolls. Place them on the baking sheet, slashing a diagonal line with a sharp knife.
Cover rolls with greased plastic wrap, and put in a warm place to rise. When they look very puffy, remove the plastic wrap. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 450, and place a spare empty baking sheet with a lip in the oven. When the oven has preheated, pour 1 cup of water on to the spare baking sheet to create steam. It may buckle. This is okay.
Bake for 16-17 minutes. When done, they will have slightly browned bottoms and feel light for their size. Cool and use immediately or freeze.
