  • 0.5 cup water (100° to 110°)
  • 0.5 cup water cold

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • sauce pan
  • oven
  • hand mixer
  • wooden spoon

Directions

  1. Heat 3/4 cup butter and milk in a large saucepan over medium-high heat to just below the boiling point.
  2. Add 3/4 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons salt, and stir until sugar dissolves.
  3. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool.
  4. Combine yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/2 cup warm water; let stand 5 minutes or until mixture becomes frothy.
  5. Beat eggs, potatoes, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth and well blended; beat in 1/2 cup cold water.
  6. Stir together the cooled milk mixture, egg mixture, and yeast mixture in a large bowl. Gradually add 3 cups flour, and continue beating at medium speed with an electric mixer. (You may have to beat in the rest of the flour with a wooden spoon.) Stir in 3 1/2 to 4 more cups flour or enough to form a soft dough, scraping down sides of bowl several times. (Dough will be very sticky.)
  7. Place dough in lightly oiled bowl; cover and refrigerate for 8 hours.
  8. Preheat oven to 40

  11. Brush rolls with 3 tablespoons melted butter; fold each roll in half, pressing gently in the center to seal. Cover loosely, and let rise in a warm place (85), free from drafts, 30 to 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
