ready-when-you-want-them freshly baked yeast rolls
I love fresh-baked rolls, but I am not a fan of the ones in the pressurized tube. The problem is, it takes a bit of time to make good yeast rolls. The solution: Take time to make a batch, freeze them, and pull them out as needed. Fresh rolls… yummy. So, you ready, let’s get into the kitchen.
