List of Ingredients
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus extra to grease tin
2 3/4 cups unbleached flour
2 teaspoons dry yeast
Sprinkle yeast and sugar into buttermilk in a bowl. Leave for 5 minutes; stir to dissolve. Mix flour, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Make a well in center and pour in dissolved yeast and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Mix in flour to form a soft, moist dough. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface. Knead until smooth, glossy and elastic, about 10 minutes. Put dough in clean bowl and cover with dish towel. Let rise until doubled about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Punch down, then let rest for 10 minutes. Roll out dough to form a rectangle 20 x 12 x 1/8 inch thick. Brush with remaining melted butter. Use a sharp knife to cut the buttered dough into 7 strips, each about 1 3/4 inches wide. Place strips on top of one another to form an even stack. Use a sharp knife to cut stack crosswise into 8 equal pieces. Turn each piece cut side up and pinch underside together to seal. Place rolls in a well buttered muffin tin or bun tin and cover with dish towel. Proof until doubled in size about 1 hour. Bake in preheated 400F oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
