Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for the baking pan)
  • 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (562 g)
  • 5 tablespoons sugar (71 g)
  • 2 envelopes Instant Yeast
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 1/3 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (cubed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (cubed and softened to room temperature)
  • 6 cloves garlic (grated)
  • 1/4 cup fresh Italian parsley (finely chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 large egg (beaten, for egg wash topping)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Warm the milk in a saucepan until it’s just warm to the touch (110°F to 115°F). Remove from heat and add the sugar and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, then pour in the yeast mixture, egg, and cubed butter. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
  4. Mix the softened butter, grated garlic, parsley, and salt in a bowl until smooth.
  5. Grease a baking pan with butter. Let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about an hour.
  6. Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle. Spread the garlic filling over the dough. Cut into squares or strips, then roll them up.
  7. Place the rolls in the prepared pan and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the rolls with beaten egg and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Brush with melted butter when they come out.

Notes

These rolls are versatile and can be enjoyed with soups, salads, or roasted vegetables. Add cheese or olives for more flavor.
