First Proofing

  • Wrap the bowl with a plastic film and let the dough stand rise in a warm environment for 1 hour or until it gets almost doubled in size.
    This proofing time may vary according to the ambient temperature.
    If the room temperature is cold, it may take around 1 and 1/2 hours.

Divide and Shape the dough

  • After the proofing, degas the dough.
    Fold it from the edges towards the center.Then transfer the dough on to a lightly floured work surface.
  • Slap and fold the dough to form a smooth dough.
    Roll the dough and form it into a rectangle of approximately 1/8 th thickness.
    I rolled it into 18 inch x 11 inch rectangle.
    Make some markings on top so that we can divide them equally.
    I divided the sheet into 12 equal pieces.
    Then shape them by rolling each small piece of dough.

  • Place each of them on to a prepared baking tray ,baking tray greased with butter and lined with a parchment paper.
    Now our dough is ready for the final rising.
    Cover the baking tray and Let them rise.

Final Rising

  • Let the dough sit and rise in warm environment for 60 minutes.
    Give the bread rolls a good egg wash so that they will look golden brown with a shine on top after baking.
    We can prepare the egg wash by lightly beating one egg.

Bake the no knead dinner rolls

  • Bake the no knead dinner rolls at 350 F or 180 C preheated oven for 22-25 minutes.
    The top of the dinner rolls or bread rolls will start browning at around 18 minutes of baking.It doesn’t mean our yeast rolls are done.
    At this point if we take it out, the center of the bread rolls will have a doughy texture and it will smell very “yeasty”
    So wait for 24 minutes to bake it properly.
  • When the bread rolls is done,take the tray out from the oven.
    Demould the bread rolls so that it will not get soggy .
    If you want your crust to be more soft,smear the top with some butter.
    The bread rolls will be golden brown in color, with a thin soft crust and soft and fluffy crumb inside.
    Enjoy!
