My mom recently sent me this recipe, telling me she could could have “eaten twelve of these rolls at a time”. She made these rolls for Thanksgiving and I am making them for Christmas. They are the perfect dinner roll because they can be made ahead of time and look so beautiful because of the all of fresh herbs.
In a large bowl, sprinkle:
1 package of active yeast over
1/4 cup warm water
Let stand about five minutes or until yeast is dissolved and foamy. Stir in:
3 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1 tablespoon minced chives
1 tablespoon minced rosemary
2 tablespoons of melted butter
1 beaten egg
1 to 1/2 cups milk
Stir until combined, then add:
3 1/4 flour
Stir to moisten and then knead dough on a lightly floured surface until dough is elastic and not sticky. You may need to add more flour as you go in order to prevent dough from sticking. Once dough is smooth, form into twelve equal shaped balls and place in a buttered 9×13 pan.
(*If preparing the rolls in advance, cover rolls and freeze, at this point. Do not let them rise. Thaw in refrigerator before allowing to rise.)
Let dough rise in a warm place, until doubled in size about 45-60 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Once rolls have risen brush with an additional beaten egg yolk and sprinkle with kosher or coarse salt. Bake for 25-30 or until golden brown.

Was not clear that the egg is to be left out of the mix. The 3 1/4 c flour was too much dry with the wet mixture. Dissapointed , this is not for a beginner
Thanks for your feedback and sorry the recipe was not clear. A whole egg is to be mixed into the dough, along with the melted butter. You can brush the rolls with an egg yok, an egg white, 1 tablespoon of melted butter, or even olive oil. It is just to give them a shine; it shouldn’t change the taste or texture. The rolls may have been dry if you left the egg out to brush it one the rolls. Hope this helps that you’ll try this recipe again.- Recipleased
