Sourdough Roll Up Rolls at oldfatguy.ca

A great addition to any meal is a good roll. Christmas dinner is no exception so I made Sourdough Roll Up Rolls.

You put warm water in the mixing bowl of your stand mixer and add the yeast. Stir and let it sit for 10 minutes.

You add 3 cups of the flour, sourdough starter, butter, salt and sugar to the bowl. Using the mixing paddle, put it on low to moisten the flour and then put on medium for 2 minutes.

Mix the remaining flour with the baking soda and add it to the mixer bowl. Change to the dough hook and mix until the dough starts to form a ball. Continue kneading with the dough hook for 7 minutes.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead 4 or 5 times. Form it into a ball.

Grease the bowl with the oil. Put the dough in and turn it to coat it with the oil.

Cover the bowl and put it in a warm place. I put mine in the oven with a pot of water I have just boiled. Let it rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours. You know it is doubled when two fingers inserted in the dough don’t spring back.

Turn the dough onto a floured board and cut it in half. Roll and stretch the dough into a rectangle that is 20 cm (8 in) by 30 cm (12 in). Move the top of the dough to one side by 2 inches to make a parallelogram with a two inch offset.

Measure 10 cm (4 in) along the top edge from the left and cut to the bottom left corner to make a triangle. Roll the triangle from the base.

Measure 10 cm (4 inches) along the bottom edge from the left and cut to the top right corner. Roll this triangle. Continue alternating from top to bottom until you have made six triangles and rolled them.

Repeat the process with the second half of the dough.

Put the rolls on two baking greased sheets leaving as much room as possible between each roll and the edge of the baking sheet. They will be getting bigger.

Cover each sheet with a towel and put in a warm place to rise until doubled. About one hour.

Cook in a 190 C (375 F) oven for 30 minutes, rotating the trays from top to bottom half way through. They are done when they are a nice brown and have an internal temperature of at least 90 C (200 F). Put on a rack to cool.

Of course, you have to try one to make sure it alright. It is just part of the sacrifices a cook makes.

The Verdict

I made these with all white flour as my guests prefer white bread. While I prefer whole wheat, these had a nice crust and tender interior. The taste was richer than normal white bread with the sourdough adding a nice taste but no sourness as this is a short rise bread. They were great if I do say so myself.

They do make a large roll but is it possible to have to much of a great bun?
