Sourdough Rolls

They taste just like Texas Roadhouse rolls!

INGREDIENTS: -2 tablespoons butter -1 cup milk -3 tablespoons sugar -1 teaspoon salt -½ cup active sourdough starter -3 cups + 2 tablespoons bread flour -melted butter and cinnamon(for brushing the top of the rolls after baking) DIRECTIONS: Step 1: The night before: Feed your starter the night before you want to make the rolls so it is nice and ready. (you can make sure its ready by doing the float test [ put a small amount of start in a dish of water and see if its floats!]) Step 2: The next morning: Melt the butter, milk, sugar and salt over low heat in a saucepan. Allow it to cool completely. Mix the liquid with the sourdough starter and flour in a mixing bowl. Cover and let rest 1 hour at room temperature. Step 3: After it has rested for an hour: Perform 3 sets of stretch and folds, spaced 30 minutes apart. After the last set, cover the bowl and let the dough rest at room temperature for 2 hours. Step 4: After it has rested for 2 hours: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball by gathering up the sides and pinching them together. Turn the dough over so that the seam side is down on the work surface and gently form a smooth ball. Place the dough balls into a lightly greased, glass baking dish. Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and allow them to rise at room temperature for 3-4 hours. The dough should look puffy and have risen by about 50% when they are ready to bake. Step 5: After they have rested for 3-4 hours: Bake the rolls in a 375°F for 25-30 minutes. The top of the rolls should be light golden brown to your liking. Brush the tops with melted butter and cinnamon after they come out of the oven and enjoy!
