Ingredients

Dough

  • 20 g bread flour
  • 100 g milk
  • 115 g warm milk (95-100℉ (35-37℃))
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 4 g instant dry yeast (7g if using active dry)
  • 330 g bread flour
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 large egg (room temperature)
  • 4 tsp fresh rosemary (chopped)

  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • 3 tbsp honey

Herbs & Toppings

  • fresh dill
  • flat-leaf parsley
  • pink peppercorns
  • flaky sea salt

Instructions 

  • Make tangzhong paste by combining flour and water, cook until it forms a paste, then cool.
  • If using active dry yeast, bloom it in warm milk with honey for 10 mins. For instant yeast, skip this step.
  • Mix yeast, warm milk, honey, flour, salt, egg, rosemary, and tangzhong. Knead with butter for 10-15 mins, then let rise until doubled (~1-1.5 hrs).
  • Melt butter, whisk in honey. Punch down dough, divide into 12 balls, place in pan. Brush with honey butter, add herbs, peppercorns, and sea salt. Let proof for 30-45 mins.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 25-30 mins until golden. Cool slightly and serve.
