Beat with electric mixer on low speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Beat on medium speed 1 minute, scraping bowl frequently. Stir in enough remaining flour, 1/4 cup at a time, to make dough easy to handle.
• Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead about 5 minutes or until dough is smooth and springy. Grease large bowl with shortening. Place dough in bowl, turning dough to grease all sides. Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap; let rise in warm place about 1 hour or until dough has doubled in size. Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.

THE ULTIMATE DINNER ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the warm milk, warm water, melted butter, and sugar.
• Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the wet ingredients, stir to combine, and let stand for 5 minutes, until foamy
• In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, and stir to combine. Beat 1 egg, then add to the bloomed yeast mixture. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour and use a knife to stir until the mixture just comes together and forms a dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth. Add more flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking. To test if it's done, tear off a small piece of dough and stretch into a thin layer. If the dough doesn't rip, it's ready. Or, press a finger into the dough to see if it bounces back.
• Lightly grease a large glass bowl with oil. Add the dough, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Punch down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead for a few more minutes, just until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 16 equal balls, roughly the size of tangerines.
• Knead the balls, gathering the edges of the dough toward the center to make a taut, round ball with a smooth top.
• Place the rolls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl. Uncover the rolls and brush with the egg wash. Lightly sprinkle the rolls with sea salt.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls have lightly browned and doubled in size.
• Enjoy!

CLASSIC WHITE DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• OLD SCHOOL METHOD: combine 3/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
• Heat the milk, water, and butter until warm, then add to the flour mixture.
• Beat 2 minutes at medium speed with an electric mixer, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally.
• Add 1/4 cup flour, beat 2 minutes at high speed.
• Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough, knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
• Cover, let rest for 10 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 12 pieces and shape into balls. Place in a greased 8" pie pan. Cover and let rise in a warm draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes. Go to Step #9!
• BREAD MACHINE METHOD: Place the ingredients in the order required by your bread machine. With mine, I have to proof the yeast first in the sugar and water for 10-15 minutes. After proofing, do a regular 1-lb dough cycle in your machine. Mine takes 90 minutes. (NOTE- I'd recommend using closer to 2 1/2-3 cups flour for the bread machine method as mine tends to produce runny dough time to time.).
• When the dough cycle's finished, divide the dough into 12 pieces and shape into balls. Place them into a greased 8" pie pan.
• Bake at 375F for 20 minutes or until set. Remove from the pan and brush with melted butter if desired, serve warm and immediately.
