Note

Use unsifted whole-wheat flour for this recipe.

It is highly recommended to use only sea salt for the best flavor profile.

The overnight chill is crucial for developing flavor and texture; do not skip this step.

If you prefer a softer crumb, you can substitute half of the whole-wheat flour with white bread flour.

Store leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
