Makes 12 small rectangular rolls
Ingredients
1 cup filtered warm water - 110 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit
2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
Procedure
In a big bowl, put the warm water, add the yeast and the sugar. Stir and cover with a kitchen towel or plastic food wrap, then let rise for 10 minutes.
Add the salt to the flour and mix well. Add the flour 1/2 cup at a time to the yeast mixture mixing everything together until all the flour have been added.
Knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and flour sticks together and forms into a ball. Put the ball of dough in a greased bowl with olive oil. Brush dough with olive oil on top. Cover with a wet kitchen towel or plastic food wrap and keep in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
Punch dough in the center to deflate and remove air. Transfer to a floured working surface and flatten dough into a log. Divide dough to 12 pieces.
Work on each dough by flattening the dough and folding dough towards the center. Shape into 4" X 2" logs. Put on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Keep a distance of 2" between rolls. Cover with a kitchen towel, keep in a warm place and let rise for 30 minutes.
Brush the top of each dough with olive oil and bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
