Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Active sourdough starter (100% hydration)
- 240 milliliters Warm water
- 30 milliliters Olive oil
- 8 grams Salt
- 400 grams All-purpose flour (or bread flour)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter and warm water. Stir until the starter is dissolved.
Add olive oil and salt to the mixture. Stir to combine.
Gradually add the flour, 50 grams at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Once the dough starts coming together, switch to kneading by hand or use a stand mixer with a dough hook.
Knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, you can lightly flour your hands or the work surface, but avoid adding too much flour.
Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow it to rest at room temperature for 4-6 hours for the bulk fermentation. The dough should double in size.
Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a roll by rolling it into a smooth ball and placing it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Cover the rolls loosely with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let them proof for an additional 1-2 hours, or until they have doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Once the rolls are proofed, bake them for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and they sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool on a wire rack before serving.
