Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm milk and granulated sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the yeast is activated, add it to the flour mixture along with the melted unsalted butter and eggs. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    First Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Shaping and Baking

  1. 6

    Shape Rolls

    After the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball.

  2. 7

    Arrange in Baking Dish

    Place the shaped rolls in a greased baking dish, arranging them close together to allow for rising. Cover with a towel and let rise for another 30 minutes.

  3. 8

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  4. 9

    Prepare Topping

    Melt the remaining unsalted butter and brush it over the tops of the rolls. Sprinkle rosemary salt on top.

  5. 10

    Bake

    Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
