Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F to 115°F)
- 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 10 cups water (for boiling)
- 2/3 cup baking soda
- 1 large egg (beaten with 1 tablespoon water for egg wash)
- Coarse salt (for topping)
Instructions
- In a stand mixer bowl, combine melted butter, sugar, salt, and warm water; sprinkle yeast on top and let sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add flour and mix on low speed until a dough forms; increase speed to medium and mix until smooth (about 4 minutes).
- Remove dough, grease lightly with nonstick spray, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into four sections; shape each into rolls and place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet; let rise again for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 450°F; boil water in a large pot and stir in baking soda.
- Boil each roll for one minute flipping halfway through using a slotted spoon; return them to the baking sheet.
- Brush rolls with egg wash, sprinkle with coarse salt, cut shallow 'X' on top of each roll, and bake for about 20 minutes until dark brown.
- Cool on a wire rack for five minutes before serving.
