A Recipe for
Easy Parker House Rolls
“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it." |

Food Tip |
"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’." |
| John Thorne, American food writer |

Pour the scalded milk over the sugar, 2 tbls of butter and salt in a
mixing bowl. Cool to lukewarm. Sprinkle the yeast over the lukewarm
water and stir to dissolve. Add 2 cups of flour, and the yeast
mixture to the milk mixture. Beat, with an electric mixer on medium
speed, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Gradually add enough of the
remaining flour to make a soft dough, then cover and let rest for 15
minutes. Knead the dough a few times on a lightly floured surface
until it is no longer sticky and roll out to a 1/2-inch thickness.
Cut into rounds, using a floured biscuit cutter. Brush the rounds
with the remaining 2 Tbls of melted butter and crease each roll in
the center with the dull edge of a knife. Fold the rolls over on the
crease and press the edges together lightly. Place on greased baking
sheets and cover. Let rise in a warm place until almost doubled,
about 30 minutes. Bake in a preheated 400 degree F. oven for 10
minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the baking sheets and
cool on wire racks. NOTE: These rolls are almost a must at the
Holiday dinners coming up shortly. Restaurants and most older cooks
make it a tradition to serve them.
