So anyway, I have this lovely recipe to share with you and it makes the best dinner rolls. In my personal cookbook, these are named “best dinner rolls” so that I’m 100% certain I’m using the right recipe. I’m not sure why there’s any other roll recipes still there, they never get used. These have the perfect structure, texture, and flavour. They’re just perfect. Not too dense, not too light…. Fresh, they are eye-fluttering scrumptious (look, I said I love bread), but even the next day (if there’s any left…) they are just awesome little sandwich buns, or with some reheated soup.
