Ingredients
- 120 grams Active sourdough starter
- 240 milliliters Warm water
- 30 milliliters Olive oil
- 15 milliliters Honey
- 450 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 grams Salt (optional for minimal sodium)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, warm water, olive oil, and honey. Stir together until well combined.
Step 2
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, about 100 grams at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or your hands until the dough begins to form a ball.
Step 3
If including salt to manage a minimal sodium intake, add it now and mix into the dough.
Step 4
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until the dough becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a tiny amount of flour at a time while kneading.
Step 5
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm spot for 4-6 hours or until doubled in size. Alternatively, you can let the dough rise overnight in the refrigerator for a slower fermentation.
Step 6
After the first rise, punch down the dough gently and divide it into 10 equal portions. Shape each portion into a roll and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced slightly apart.
Step 7
Cover the rolls loosely with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let them proof for another 1-2 hours, or until they have puffed up.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). If desired, brush the tops of the rolls with a little olive oil or water for a golden crust.
Step 9
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are lightly golden and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Step 10
Allow the rolls to cool on a wire rack before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage.
