I am not a baker, part II

My grandmother once told me I wouldn't be ready to marry until I could bake bread. So I'm already running behind and no one wants to disappoint Lola. Here's another good recipe for the non-baker, this time for dinner rolls. And this one doesn't take a day and a half to make.

These are called cornmeal rolls, but with only 1/2 cup of cornmeal vs 5 cups of bread flour, they don't taste much like corn. The resulting roll is slightly sweet a la pandesal but has more of a biscuit texture on the inside. I took the liberty of brushing the rolls with milk and sprinkling them with extra cornmeal before baking.


The bread rise still impresses me.

The bread was shared with family over the Easter weekend.
