Ingredients
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 7 g instant yeast
- 10 g salt
- 350 ml water
Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the 500g flour, 7g yeast, and 10g salt. Make a well in the center.
- 2
Pour the 350ml water into the well and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes.
- 3
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic—it should spring back when poked.
- 4
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.
- 5
Punch down the dough, divide into 8 equal pieces, and shape each into a tight ball. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
- 6
Cover the rolls loosely with the towel and let rise again for 30 minutes, until puffy. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
- 7
Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes until deep golden brown and they sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool on a rack.
