That's a different recipe Ed, they look really good.  For those of us who only use dried yeast, what would you suggest the weight be please?

[edmundkostewicz]

Thanks Judy. The weight of fresh yeast was 36 g and this should equate to 12 g of dry yeast. In Germany the fresh yeast cube costs 8 cents and can easily be found in all supermarkets.

I love all these yeast recipes. Thanks Ed they look great.

[CreamPuff63]

actually I'm making them now, couldn't wait!

[edmundkostewicz]

Please let me know how they go

Ed,  love the process of rolling into a cylinder,  and they should rise like mad with all that yeast.  After you have placed the rolls in the cold oven,  do you then set the oven to 200o and cook then while the temp.  is rising to 200o?

[edmundkostewicz]

Yes, that is correct. Leave rolls in oven and after 10 min turn on oven. Should sound hollow when ready

lucky, cos thats what I did. they look to have turned out very nicely, and I haven't had one yet cos I am going to freeze them for lunches. 10 makes smallish rolls, next time I might just make 8 cos it will be lunch size. thanks ed they were a breeze to make, and I am sure they will be lovely 

[edmundkostewicz]

Great to hear they turned out.

I have just bought a food vacume and thought I would be really clever and seal and vacume some rolls -- don't do it! They flattened out to about 1cm (eek), anyway I just gave up and unsealed the bag,  and came on here and now I have looked at them they have sprung back voila!

CP,  freeze them first , then vacuum them.
