 Categories: German, Biscuit/muf
      Yield: 12 Rolls

  2 1/2    Flour
      1 ts Sugar
      1 ts Salt
      1 pk Active dry yeast
      1 ts Oil
      1 c  Water; warm
      1    Egg white

  Pour 2-1/2 cups flour into a large bowl and mix well. Pour yeast,
  sugar, and 2 tb of water (the water comes from the 1 cup listed
  above) in the well. Mix yeast, sugar and water carefully within the
  well. Do not mix with the flour at this time. Cover the bowl with a
  cloth and set it in a warm place for 15 minutes. Add the remaining
  water and oil and beat until mixed. Turn out on counter top and
  knead until smooth. Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour as needed. Put
  dough in a bowl, cover, and let it rise until double in size. Punch
  down and divide the dough into 12 parts. Shape into oval rolls and
  place 3" apart on a greased and floured cookie sheet. Cover and let
  rise until double in size. Beat egg white and 1 ts water with a
  fork until frothy and brush on the rolls. Bake in a preheated oven
  at 450°F for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.

  Hint: To make day old rolls fresh, put them in the oven at 350°F
  for 10 minutes.
