My ideal roll has a soft and fluffy interior and a crusty, crunchy, browned exterior. Believe it or not, Eb accomplishes this quite nicely.
It's pretty easy, too--I simply use my recipe for whole wheat sourdough bread, but instead of dividing it into loaf pans, I pinch off little balls and let them rise in a round cake pan.
Voila--the resulting rolls are just the way I like 'em.
They pair pretty darn well with some pepper jelly, too...
...as does turkey, ham, cheese & crackers, and a heck of a lot of other things.
It's good stuff. Magical, even. Maybe if I can wrest the recipe away from the fella (yes, fella) who made it, I'll share it with ya'll.
Yes! Pepper jelly! Good thinking! I would love some of these rolls to make some more sliders.
ReplyDeleteYou can't get better than fresh baked rolls. The pepper jelly is a great idea - my husband LOVES it!
ReplyDeleteohhh pepper jelly! what a great combo for sourdough rolls! i hopy uou get out your sumo suit and wrestle that recipe away asap!!
ReplyDeleteI want your rolls with unsalted cold butter...say ahhh!
ReplyDeleteThey look so fresh and fluffy. :-)
ReplyDeleteThose rolls look delicious! They seem so soft and beautiful. What's more someone just sent me a jar of pepper jelly for Christmas. Unfortunately I managed to kill the last sourdough starter I was given. It was embarrassing. I hardly thought such a thing was possible. Now your exploits with sourdough seem even more impressive!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like we like our rolls the same way! And yeah - I want some of that pepper jelly...
ReplyDeleteI love bread! I seem to be overly fond of all things bad for me. Or is it because I over indulge? Hmm, I pretty certain I wouldn't be happy with just one of your rolls. It's over indulge!
ReplyDelete~ingrid
Hmm, I'd like to try these with some apple butter!
ReplyDeleteThose rolls look simply divine! YUM!!!!! If you do get the recipe.... pass along, please!!!!!

Love the rolls; love the jelly;
ReplyDeletethey'd give me a happy belly!
YUM!
These are some mighty fine lookin' rolls! I love a nice, warm roll.
ReplyDeleteI tasted a habanero jelly for the first time a few months ago and really like it. It seems like it's quickly gaining popularity, and for good reason!
ReplyDeleteMmm you can see how soft, freshly bakeed and good those rolls are from the pics! Go Eb!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous rolls!! I love me some pepper jelly;)
ReplyDeleteOoh, so fluffy. I wish I had an Ebb.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, you can send it this way. Those rolls look amazing. I picture a pat of butter melting all over one. Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteThey look like they are going to melt in the mouth. And the jelly, delicious.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good...I love jalapeƱo jelly, but that pepper jelly looks like a tastier item than what I had. Yum!
ReplyDeleteRolls beautiful.
ReplyDeleteFella? What's this...spill the beans missy!
Those rolls look very tempting, with a touch of butter ... yum!
ReplyDeletegorgeous rolls & I love pepper jelly
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea, to take a favorite bread recipe and make it into rolls. I love sourdough, so this is perfect for me.
ReplyDeleteYes, share this recipe...so I can try to make 'em gluten free! They look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThose rolls look sooo good! As does the red pepper jelly! I like my jelly with some cream cheese. :)
ReplyDeleteOh yummy!! Making bread is one of my favorite things to do.
ReplyDeleteHoly moly those look good. Your photography is amazing. I just made dinner rolls this past weekend--they were divine, if I do say so myself ;) but I sure as heck didn't get any photos of them like that! My family's recipe is for softer and sweeter rolls--yours look like a good alternative. I'm copying the recipe down....
ReplyDeleteOoops, I missed you don't have the recipe. No fair! Add me to those wanting the recipe....
ReplyDeleteWOW - those rolls look bakery perfect and so delicious!
ReplyDeleteYou have such delicious posts. The fabulous rolls would be heaven on a chilly evening. Very impressive.
ReplyDeleteMust. Have. Rolls.
ReplyDeleteYum. Nuff said.
Those look so fluffy! I've no idea what pepper jelly is, but sheesh, it looks so tempting!
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly how I imagine my ideal rolls! They are perfect, Grace! What a crumb!
ReplyDeleteNothing better than a fresh baked roll.
ReplyDeleteYou sold me. I need my own Eb. And some of those rolls.
ReplyDeleteGreat rolls! With pepper jelly too, even better. I gotta get some eb for me!
ReplyDeletePepper jelly on a roll? Sounds like a great snack. I might even add a schmear of cream cheese with it!
ReplyDeleteOh, yum. I can practically taste the goodness!
ReplyDeleteRoll me out the door right along with you! Is there any other way to exit a room when Eb is involved? :-)
ReplyDeleteRoll me to these rolls! I want a taste! They look divine!
ReplyDeleteOk, I have to make a sourdough starter already! Whole wheat sourdough rolls sound fantastic.
ReplyDeletewow, those rolls look so professionally puffy and good. Sorry to hear about your root canal, that's gotta suck anyways, but especially during the holidays.
ReplyDeleteThe texture of the crumb does look light and fluffy. Never had red pepper jelly before. I get this feeling I'm missing out on something.
ReplyDeleteMmm fluffy rolls.
ReplyDeleteEb has proven to be entirely versatile. You've trained him so well. Excellent looking rolls.
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmm, fresh bread... It might just be my favorite food. Too bad we can't live on bread alone, huh? :)
ReplyDeleteNo idea why, but rolls are SO indulgent to me...probably bc I rarely have them. Except when I'm out to eat - then a buttery, warm, soft roll? COME to Mama! And that jelly/jam? Indeed.
