Soft Buttermilk Rolls
Make on FrescoWhen you make butter, what do you do with all that buttermilk?? WELL. This is a no brainer. Using lots of buttermilk does result in a sticky dough, but the outcome is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Worth the fiddle is what I am saying here. Tips...use wet hands to form the rolls. Brush with butter immediately they are out of the oven as then the butter forms a pretty glaze and keeps the crust soft and delicious.
A little science about buttermilk in baking can be found here, but essentially, the acid in the buttermilk breaks down the gluten in the flour and voila, you have amazingly Soft Buttermilk Rolls. Eat at your own peril, because one just isn't enough!
Serve these with any of the following;
