Recipe Introduction
Posted by: HomestyleAR
I keep a bowl of starter sitting in my kitchen all the time. I use all of it or some of it according to how much bread I want to make.
For a lot of rolls:
Put two cups warm water in big bowl. Add 1/2 cup sugar and sprinklke 1 1/2 tablespoon yeast over the water. Mix and then add two cups flour and 2 teaspoons salt. Mix and let sit a few hours, all day or all night. When ready to make rolls, add an egg and 1/4 cup oil and enough flour to make a wet dough that won't hold shape. Let rise in bowl covered until doubled. Pour dough onto flour coated surface and add flour a little at a time until dough is not too sticky to handle. I don't knead the dough, (kneading dough for rolls will make them hard and tough) just turn it around with a dough scraper to mix flour in it so it won't be too sticky and will hold a shape. I pinch off an egg size pieces of dough and place close together in a 9 x 13 greased pan. I spread the top of the rolls with oil, cover and let rise until double. Bake in 425� until golden brown. The rolls will be very light and yeasty.
Don't be surprised to use up to 5 cups or more of flour with the two cups of liquid in the starter
