Soft, lightly sweet white wheat rolls enriched with butter and dry milk.
About dinner roll
Dinner rolls are small individual breads served alongside a meal. This profile follows King Arthur's soft white version, made from a lightly sweetened yeast dough enriched with butter and dry milk.
Wheat and yeast give a mild fresh-bread aroma, while butter and dry milk add gentle dairy richness. Sugar softens the flavour without making the rolls dessert-sweet, and salt keeps the finish savoury.
The rolls are smooth, round and pale golden, often touching at the sides as they bake. Their thin tender crust gives way to a fine, fluffy and pull-apart white crumb.
