- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cooked bacon or ham
- 2 packages active dry yeast (3 1/4 teaspoons)
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- Caraway seeds or poppy seeds for garnish
Instructions:
-
Soften Yeast: Begin by softening the yeast in lukewarm water. Allow it to sit for a few minutes until it becomes frothy.
-
Scald Milk: In a separate saucepan, scald the milk. Then, add sugar, salt, and shortening to the scalded milk mixture. Allow it to cool to lukewarm temperature.
-
Mix Flour and Herbs: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour with the dried thyme, ground mace, chopped rosemary, and dried oregano.
-
Combine Ingredients: Once the milk mixture has cooled, add it to the flour and herb mixture. Beat the ingredients well until they are fully incorporated.
-
Add Eggs and Yeast: Add the beaten eggs and softened yeast to the mixture. Continue beating until the dough is smooth and elastic.
-
Incorporate Bacon or Ham: Fold in the finely chopped cooked bacon or ham into the dough until evenly distributed.
-
Allow Rising: Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place until it becomes bubbly. This usually takes about 1 hour.
-
Prep Muffin Pans: While the dough is rising, prepare small muffin pans by greasing them with melted butter and sprinkling caraway seeds or poppy seeds on the bottom of each muffin cup.
-
Shape Rolls: Once the dough has doubled in size and become light and airy, gently stir it down. Fill each muffin cup halfway with the dough.
-
Second Rise: Allow the shaped rolls to rise again until they double in size.
-
Bake: Preheat your oven to 425ยฐF (220ยฐC). Bake the rolls in the preheated oven until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
