Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Hot water
1/2 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Shortening
2 packs Active dry yeast
1 1/2 tsp Salt
1 Egg
6 cups All-purpose flour

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Yeast Mixture:

    • In a large mixing bowl, mix the yeast with hot water and let it stand for about 10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Combine Ingredients:

    • To the yeast mixture, add sugar, melted shortening, and salt, and mix well until fully incorporated.
  3. Incorporate Egg:

    • Crack the egg into the mixture and stir until combined.
  4. Add Flour:

    • Gradually stir in 4-5 cups of all-purpose flour until the dough begins to come together.
  5. Knead Dough:

    • Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead in the remaining cup of flour. Knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  6. First Rise:

    • Place the dough in a large greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
  7. Shape Rolls:

    • Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and divide it into 15 equal portions. Shape each portion into a dinner roll and place them with sides touching in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.
  8. Second Rise:

    • Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise again until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  9. Bake:

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once the rolls have doubled in size, bake them in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  10. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. These hot rolls are best enjoyed warm with your favorite spreads or alongside your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
