Steps:
- The Starter:
- Mix the starter ingredients together until smooth, cover, and let rest at room temperature overnight.
- Combine all of the dough ingredients and mix and knead them together -- by hand, mixer or bread machine, until you've made a soft, somewhat smooth dough; it should be cohesive, but the surface should still be a bit rough. Allow the dough to rise, covered, for 3 hours, gently deflating it and turning it over after 1 hour, and again after 2 hours.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly greased or floured work surface. Divide it into 12 pieces, shape the pieces into balls, and firm them up by rolling them under your lightly cupped fingers on an unfloured work surface. Place the rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cover them, and let them rise for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until they've doubled in size. Refrigerate them for several hours, or overnight.
- Remove the rolls from the refrigerator, and brush them with a wash made of 1/2 cup water mixed with 1 tablespoon egg white (you won't use up all the wash). Slash a 1/4-inch deep cut across the top of each roll, and bake them in a preheated 425°F (220°C) oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until they're a deep golden brown. Remove them from the oven, and cool on a wire rack. For an extra-crisp crust, allow them to cool in the turned-off, door-propped-open oven.
- Yield: 12 rolls.

Steps:
- Combine 3/4 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees F). Add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/4 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
- Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; shape into balls. Place in greased 8-inch round pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
- Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 20 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.

Tips:
- Use fresh active yeast. Check the expiration date on the package and make sure the yeast is still good.
- Proof the yeast before using. This will help to ensure that the yeast is active and will help the dough to rise properly.
- Use a stand mixer with a dough hook to knead the dough. This will make the process much easier and faster.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes. The dough should be slightly tacky, but not sticky.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a roll and place them on a baking sheet.
- Let the rolls rise again until they have doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
- Bake the rolls in a preheated oven at 375°F for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
- Let the rolls cool on a wire rack before serving.
Conclusion:
These hard rolls are the perfect addition to any meal. They are soft and fluffy on the inside, with a crispy crust on the outside. They are also very easy to make, thanks to the use of a stand mixer. Follow the tips above and you will be able to make these delicious rolls in no time.
