Classic Yeasted Dinner Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 None (1/4-oz) packets instant yeast (4 1/2 tsp)
1 cup warm water
1/4 cup warm milk
1/4 cup olive oil
4 1/3 cups bread flour
1 tbsp salt
None None Beaten egg or milk, for glazing
None None Caraway, cumin, fennel, or sesame seeds; or sea salt flakes, to garnish

Preparation

Lightly grease a baking sheet. Sprinkle the yeast over combined water, milk and oil in a small bowl. Let sit for 5 mins, until foamy. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl.
Pour the yeast mixture into flour. Mix to a soft dough. Turn out on a lightly floured board and knead for 10 mins, until dough is smooth and elastic.
Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover with a tea towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 45 mins). Preheat the oven to 400\u00b0F.
Punch the air from the dough then knead for a few mins. Divide the dough into 16 even pieces. Knead each piece until smooth. Shape into balls. Place close together on tray. Cover with a tea towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 30 mins).
Brush the tops with egg and sprinkle with seeds or sea salt. Bake for 15-20 mins, until golden and the rolls sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
