Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. The day before (about 18 hours ahead of time) combine the flour, salt, and yeast in a large bowl.
  2. Stir until well mixed.
  3. Add the water, starting with 1 1/2 cups, and add a little more at a time until the flour forms a cohesive, wet ball.
  4. There should not be any dry flour left on the bottom of the bowl.
  5. The total amount of water you'll need will vary, but should be between 1 1/2 to 2 cups.
  6. Loosely cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for 16-18 hours to ferment.
  7. After 16-18 hours, the dough will look like a large, bubbly mass.
  8. Sprinkle with enough flour to be able to scrape it out of the bowl without it sticking to your hands
  9. Place the dough on a well floured surface
  10. Cut the dough into 12 pieces.
  11. Shape each piece into a small ball.
  12. The dough will be quite wet, floppy, and sticky, so sprinkle liberally with flour as you work.
  13. Place the rolls on a baking sheet covered in foil and lightly sprayed with non-stick spray (I used two baking sheets).
  14. Brush the top of each lightly with olive oil.
  15. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning over top.
  16. Let rise for 30 minutes to one hour or until doubled in size.
  17. While the rolls are still rising, preheat the oven to 425F.
  18. Once it is fully preheated, place the rolls in the oven and bake until the surface is a light golden brown (about 25 minutes).
  19. Serve warm!
