Sally's Dinner Rolls

Amount	Ingredient
1 package	active dry yeast
1/4 cup	warm water (105 to 115 degrees F.)
1/3 cup	shortening, melted and cooled
1/4 cup	sugar
Dash	salt
Dash	ground nutmeg, optional
3/4 cup	milk, scalded (105 to 115 degrees F.)
2	eggs
3 1/2 cups	all-purpose flour

Preparation Tips:

1. Combine yeast and warm water in large bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Add melted shortening (cooled), sugar, salt and nutmeg, if used.
3. Add milk and eggs and stir until well blended.
4. Gradually add flour, first 1 cup and then the remaining flour, beating until batter is smooth and satiny. Don't use too much flour; the dough should still be soft.
5. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead a few times until dough is easy to handle.
6. Let dough rise for about 30 minutes. Punch down.
7. Divide dough into 3 parts. Divide each into 6 smaller portions.
8. Shape each portion into a small round ball. Place into muffin tins or paper cups. 9. Let rise, covered, for another 50 to 60 minutes or until doubled.
10. Bake at 400 degrees F. for 10 t0 12 minutes until golden brown and light.
Tip: You may use whole wheat flour in place of all-purpose flour. Do use at least 1 cup all-purpose flour and 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour. You may also brush rolls with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds or fennel or poppy seeds.
