Time P1DT12h15m

Yield 2 doz, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup Crisco shortening
2 1/4 ounces yeast
1 cup sugar
1 cup boiling water
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup lukewarm water
2 eggs, beaten
6 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1/4 cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • Use a large bowl or dutch oven when you mix the ingredients, because the dough must have room to rise.
  • Dissolve the yeast in the lukewarm water. Set aside. Cream shortening, sugar and salt. Pour boiling water over the shortening mixture and stir until dissolved.
  • Beat the eggs and add them to the creamed mixture. Add the yeast and water. Stir.
  • Add the flour two cups at a time, stirring after each addition. Cover with plastic wrap and put a plate on top. Put in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Oil hands and baking dishes. Pinch off a small amount of dough. Flatten it in the palm of your hand. Dip it in the melted butter, then fold it over to form a pocketbook. Put in oiled pans, leaving some room to rise.
  • Cover the pans and let rise in a warm place for several hours. I put them in the oven on Warm. When they are ready, bake at 400 degrees until brown (10-15 minutes).

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly. Active dry yeast should be dissolved in warm water (105-115°F) with a little sugar to help it bloom. Instant yeast can be added directly to the dough without being activated first.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten in the flour, which will give the rolls their chewy texture.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will give the yeast time to ferment the dough and produce carbon dioxide gas, which will make the rolls light and airy.
  • Punch down the dough and shape it into rolls. Be gentle with the dough so that you don't deflate it.
  • Let the rolls rise again until they are puffy and almost doubled in size. This will give them a chance to rise a second time and develop their full flavor.
  • Bake the rolls in a preheated oven until they are golden brown. Keep an eye on them so that they don't overbake.
  • Brush the rolls with melted butter and sprinkle them with salt immediately after they come out of the oven. This will give them a delicious golden crust.

Conclusion:

Pocketbook rolls are a delightful and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are soft, fluffy, and have a slightly sweet flavor. They are also very easy to make, and can be made ahead of time and frozen. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, you are sure to love this recipe for pocketbook rolls.
