Directions
-
Pour 2 1/2 cups of flour into a large mixing bowl and create a well in the center.
-
In a small separate container, mix the yeast, sugar, and two tablespoons of the warm water.
-
Let the yeast mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy and bubbly.
-
Pour the frothy yeast mixture into the well in the flour, along with the remaining warm water, oil, and salt.
-
Stir gently with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms, then knead by hand for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
-
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
-
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces, shaping each into a smooth ball.
-
Place the rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cover, and let rise for another 30 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC).
-
Brush the tops of the rolls lightly with the egg white for a golden finish.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
-
Let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes before serving warm.
