Ingredients
1 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
One .25-ounce package dry yeast
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
Directions
- Heat the buttermilk, butter and sugar in a pot until simmering; whisk in the baking soda, then let cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, put 1/4 cup lukewarm water in a bowl and stir in the yeast; let stand 5 minutes. Whisk the yeast mixture into the buttermilk mixture.
- Whisk the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add the liquid and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough in the bowl until it comes together and is smooth, about 2 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 30 minutes.
- Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Arrange the balls in the buttered dish. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Bake the rolls until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.
