How to Make Parmesan Rolls
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add warm milk, 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, melted butter, sugar, salt, cornmeal, and eggs. Mix well.
- Gradually add 3 cups of flour, beating until smooth.
- Gradually add enough remaining flour to form a soft, slightly sticky dough.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-8 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in a large bowl coated with olive oil, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Punch down the dough.
- Shape the dough into 24 oval rolls.
- Place rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Cover loosely and let rise for 30 minutes, or until almost doubled.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from baking sheet and let cool on a wire rack before serving.
