Instructions:
…for the dough:
Crumble ½ cube fresh yeast (about 20 grams) into a tall container, add 1 teaspoon sugar, 100 milliliters lukewarm milk as well as 100 milliliters lukewarm water & stir together with a whisk or fork until yeast & sugar have completely dissolved.
Preparing Dough
Next, combine yeast-water mixture along with 400 grams flour, 1 egg & 1 teaspoon salt in a mixing bowl & knead with a food processor or a mixer with dough hook for about 4 – 5 minutes to a smooth dough. Form the dough into a ball, lay it back to the mixing bowl & allow to rest covered with a kitchen towel for 30 – 45 minutes in a warm place.
…for the bread rolls:
Grease a spingform pan or a pizza pan with some butter, also prepare a small bowl with 50 grams melted butter. Put the dough on a slightly floured worktop, briefly knead with your hands again & then cut with a knife into about 8 equal sized pieces.
Afterwards round each dough piece with circular movements under your palms into ball shape. Turn the dough balls one by one in melted butter & then place them in the prepared pan, for that put one roll centrally & the others with a bit distance to each other around the middle one.
Bread Roll Wheel
Cover the bread rolls with a kitchen towel again & allow to rest for another 20 – 30 minutes in a warm place. Preheat oven at 200°C (top/bottom heat) in good time. Brush the bread rolls with egg yolk, also sprinkle with poppy seeds & then bake in preheated oven for about 20 – 25 minutes until golden & crispy.
Get the done bread rolls out of the oven, allow to cool a bit on a cooling rack or in the springform/pizza pan & then best serve still warm. Have fun baking!
