-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups bread flour
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups hot water -- (125F to 130F)
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon butter -- (greasing bowl)
flour -- for dusting board
cornmeal
8 cups water
1/4 cup baking soda
2 tablespoons sugar
1 egg -- beaten to blend, (glaze)
coarse salt
Place 1 1/2C water and 2T butter in a heat safe bowl and microwave
until hot (125F to 130F). Set aside.
Combine flours, yeast, salt, and 1T sugar in food processor and blend
(using dough blade or regular blade). With machine running, gradually
pour butter and hot water through feed tube, adding enough liquid to
form smooth elastic dough. Process 1 minute to knead.
Grease a large bowl with butter. Add dough to bowl, turn to coat.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap, then a towel; let dough rise in a warm
draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hr.
Prepare a baking sheet by covering with parchment paper. Set aside.
Punch dough down and knead on lightly floured surface until smooth.
Divide into 8 pcs. Form each dough piece into ball (about 5 oz each).
Place dough balls on prepared sheet, flattening each slightly. Using
serrated knife, cut X in top center of each dough ball. Cover with
towel and let dough balls rise until almost doubled in volume, about 1 hr.
Meanwhile: Preheat oven to 375F. Prepare another baking sheet by
covering it in parchment and sprinkling it with cornmeal. Set aside.
Prepare and set aside beaten egg.
Bring 8C water to boil in an 8 qt pot. Add baking soda and 2T sugar
(water will foam up). Add 4 rolls and cook 30 seconds per side. Using
slotted spoon, transfer rolls to prepared sheet, arranging X side up.
Repeat with remaining rolls.
Brush rolls with beaten egg. Sprinkle rolls with coarse salt. Bake
rolls until brown, about 25 minutes. Transfer to cooling rack and
cool 10 minutes. Serve rolls warm or room temperature.
