1/4 oz yeast
1 cup of warm water 110 degrees
3 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp shortening
1 large egg
1/2 tsp salt
3-3 1/2 cups flour
Put yeast in warm water and let bloom for about 5 minutes until you can see a froth beginning to form on the top. Then mix in sugar, shortening, egg, and salt. Put flour in a little at a time until it all comes together to form a soft dough. Cover with a clean cloth and place in a room place for 1 hour or until doubled. Punch down then kneed 8-10 times. Makes about 24 clover rolls or garlic knots. Bake at 400 for 10 - 12 minutes.
