  • 510 gr. (1 lb. and 2 oz. , or 3 and 3/4 cups) high gluten flour
  • 2 tbsp. sugar
  • 2 tsp.salt
  • 2 tsp. yeast
  • 2 tbsp. whey or dry milk
  • 40 gr. (2 tbsp.) shortening
  • 380-400cc water
  • 1/2 cup pesto sauce

  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  1. Put all the ingredients together (except pesto sauce and cheese) in a bread machine.
  2. Set the machine to "Dough/Pasta" and let the machine take care of kneading .
  3. After the first rise, ( Usually the machine stops at this point) take the dough out and devide into 12 portions and roll each portion with a roll-pin.
  4. Spread pestro sauce and sprinkle cheese.
  5. Roll up the dough.
  6. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cornmeal over the pizza stone or a cookie sheet.Place the rolls.
    Brush an egg yolk over the rolls for glaze(optional).
  7. Put them about 1.5 inch apart. .
  8. Let the dough rise at 80° F for about 45 min.( or double in bulk). The time really depends on the temperature. To speed up rising, turn on the oven for 30 seconds and turn it off. Keep the dough in a warm oven.
  9. Bake at 420° for 13 min. and cover the rolls with a sheet of aluminum foil (This prevents rolls to become too dark.) and continue to bake 5 min. more.
