Brown and Serve Rolls

Source: Farm Journal Freezing & Canning Cookbook (1963)

Use plain or sweet roll dough. Shape and place in greased muffin-cup pan. Let rise, but not until doubled-about three fourths as much as usual. Bake in a slow oven (300 degrees F) about 40 minutes. Do not let rolls brown. Remove from oven and let rolls stand in pan about 20 minutes. Remove from pan, cool, wrap, package and freeze. The center of the rolls should be baked, but they should not brown.

Recommended storage time: 2 months. To use, thaw at room temperature in their wrapper. Brown in a hot oven (400 degrees F) for 5 to 7 minutes. The quality of these rolls often is not equal to that of freshly baked or frozen baked rolls because they are likely to dry out when reheated. They lack the fresh taste.

Angel Biscuits

The South is famous for its flaky biscuits. The recipe has the advantage of being able to stay as
batter in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Ingredients
1 package dry yeast
2 Tablespoons warm water
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup shortening
2 cups buttermilk
Dissolve yeast in water and set aside. Combine dry ingredients and cut
shortening into mix until it resembles coarse meal. Add yeast mixture
and buttermilk to dry ingredients. Dough will be very soft and easier to
work with if it sits overnight in the fridge. Mix well, turn onto
floured surface, and knead about 1 minute. (Dough will be very soft and
easier to work with if it sits overnight in the fridge.) Roll or cut
into biscuits. Bake in preheated oven at 400 degrees for about 12 to 15
minutes. Serve hot with sausage or homemade jelly.

Freezer Rolls

1-1/4 cup warm water
2 envelopes active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm milk
1/3 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar (I use a little less)
1-1/2 teaspoon salt
5-1/2 - 6 cups flour
2 eggs

Place 1/2 cup warm water in large warm bowl. Sprinkle in yeast; stir until dissolved. Add remaining warm water, warm milk, butter, sugar, salt and 2 cups flour. Beat 2 minutes at a medium speed.

Add eggs and 1/2 cup flour. Beat at a high speed for 2 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.

Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth & elastic, about 8-10 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap; let rest for 20 minutes. Punch dough down. Shape into desired shapes for rolls.

Rolls can be frozen and then stored for about one week. To bake from freezer, cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place about 1 hour and bake at 350°F for about 15 minutes. You can also bake as rolls without freezing by letting them rise as stated above and then bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.

Freeze-Ahead Garlic Bread
Ingredients:

1 long loaf French or Italian bread
6 to 8 tbs butter, room temp.
2 tbs dried Italian Seasoning
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
Grated Parmesan cheese

Make-Ahead Preparation:

Slice bread lengthwise leaving one side intact. In a medium bowl, combine the butter, Italian seasoning and garlic. Mix well.

Spread each cut side of the bread with the butter mixture. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese to taste over both sides of the bread. Close the loaf.

Wrap loaf in tin foil. Label and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to one month.

Last Minute Preparation:

Allow bread to thaw overnight in the freezer, if desired.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. If bread is frozen, loosen the foil and bake for 15 minutes. Open up the bread so the cut sides are exposed and cook for approximately 15 more minutes.

If bread is coming out of the refrigerator, cut cooking time down by about 10 minutes.
