Just Bread & Meat
During holiday meals, I have an uncle that only ever eats the meat and rolls. For many years the family has teased him about this, but whenever a family meal comes around that is still all he ever eats. Although, my brother and I aren’t much better ourselves. I do believe my brother could eat a Sam’s Club size of dinner rolls all by himself. I’ve found that putting mashed potatoes in the rolls is the best way to eat them. It’s like a carb sandwich!

Why Sourdough?
Sourdough was used by people to leaven bread before they were able to go to the store and by those little yeast packets. Sourdough is the old-fashioned yeast packet.
Grains contain phytic acid, but our bodies don’t really process it well. Phytic acid prevents our bodies from absorbing the nutrients from our food. Fermentation gets rid of most, if not all of the phytic acid, in the grains before we eat them. The fermentation process also helps break down some gluten, so although the bread isn’t gluten free it does have a lower gluten content. This allows people like me, who are sensitive to gluten, to eat sourdough. It also acts like a probiotic, which makes it great for gut health. Sourdough has prebiotic characteristics as well, which simply means that the good bacteria in your gut enjoy eating the fiber.
Sourdough Pull-Apart Dinner Rolls Recipe
Ingredients
½ cup active sourdough starterhttps://morgansfarmhouse.com/how-to-make-a-sourdough-starter/
¼ cup sugar
¾ cup warm water
¼ cup melted butter
½ teaspoon salt
3 cups flour
1 egg
Instructions
- Start by mixing ½ cup active sourdough starter, ¼ cup sugar, ¾ cup warm water, ¼ cup melted butter, ½ teaspoon salt, and 3 cups flour to the KitchenAid mixer. Let it knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. That will take about 10 to 15 minutes. If you stretch a little bit of the dough out really thin, you should be able to see light through it before it tears. That’s called the windowpane test. Cover the bowl with a disposable shower cap and let it sit for up to 24 hours, but at least 8 hours.
- The next day, divide the dough into 12 pieces. Place them in a greased 9×13 pan and let them rise until doubled. It will take about 2 hours depending on how warm your kitchen is.
- Lastly, scramble the egg and brush it over the rolls. This will help them turn golden brown in the oven. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or when the tops are golden brown. Remove the sourdough pull-apart dinner rolls from the oven and serve hot with lots of butter.
