Mother'S One-Hour Rolls (Mors Tvebakker) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup milk, scalded
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
6 3/4 teaspoons dry yeast
1/3 cup water
6 cups flour

Preparation

Add the butter, 1/2 cup of water, sugar and salt to the milk. Let cool.
Soften the yeast in the 1/3 cup of warm water (110 degrees) until it is foaming and then add to the first mixture. Add the sifted flour.
Knead to form a good firm dough. Knead 5 minutes more. Put in a warm place, out in the hot sun or at the back of your stove when the oven has been on. (For this recipe the yeast itself needs to be at a temperature of 88 degrees.) After 15 minutes have elapsed, punch down the dough and form into rolls.
Place on a shallow, greased baking pan and let rise in the same warm spot as before until the rolls have doubled in size.
Bake in a preheated 400\u00b0 oven 15 to 20 minutes.
