Directions
Yield: 36 Portionen
Cut shortening into flour, salt and sugar. Dissolve yeast in warm water and add to flour mixture, then add egg whites. Mix together, knead until smooth and elastic (DON T overknead and add only enough flour to keep dough from sticking) and let rise 1-1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Punch dough down, roll out on a lightly floured surface, shape into rolls and place in greased muffin tins . Let rise until doubled in size and bake in a 375 degree oven 10 to 12 minutes or until brown.
NOTE: these rolls can also be frozen on cookie sheets and placed in zip-loc freezer bags for up to 4 weeks after they have been shaped before the second rising. Take out of freezer at least 3 hours before baking, place in greased tin and let thaw and rise until doubled in size.
Source: My beloved, albeit eccentric, grandmother and great aunt, who married and then built their houses side-by-side and remained culinary collaborators, to their family s benefit, all their lives. Deb s notes: these are an old family favorite and they re quite flexible. It s pretty hard to mess em up. They work as well for breakfast with jam or honey as they do with with dinner. Sometimes I substitute whole wheat flour for up to half the bread flour called for.
I ve successfully halved the recipe (3 cups bread flour, 1 pkg yeast or about 1-1/2 ts bulk) in my Hitachi ABM--BUT, BUT, BUT--I _don t_ add the full amount of water at once. Rather, I start out with about 7/8 cup and then dribble enough add l water into the bread pan during the early stages of the knead cycle til the dough "looks right".
