# Bread Rolls

## Dough

1. Combine (240g)[water] and (3g)[fresh yeast] in a large bowl and stir to dissolve.
2. Add (288g)[bread flour] and (6g)[salt].
3. Mix until just combined — no kneading needed.
4. Cover and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
5. Perform the first set of stretch & folds (4 sides), then use the lift and slap technique.
6. Cover and rest for another 30 minutes.
7. Repeat the stretch & fold and lift and slap process once more.
8. Cover and let the dough rise until doubled in size, about 2 hours.

## Shape

9. Divide dough into 8 equal parts.
10. Quickly shape each piece into a ball (preshaping).
11. Let rest uncovered for 10 minutes.
12. Perform the final shaping on each ball, folding to tighten the surface.
13. Place on a baking pan, cover, and let rise for 30 minutes.

## Bake

14. Preheat oven to 430°F.
15. Just before baking, dust tops of rolls with [bread flour] and score them.
16. Add a little water around the bread in the pan for steam.
17. Cover with a second pan and bake for 20 minutes.
18. Remove the top pan and bake for 10 more minutes, or until golden brown and hollow when tapped.
19. Cool completely before serving.
