  4. #### Ingredients
  5. - 1 cup warm water (about 110°F/45°C)
  6. - 2 tablespoons sugar
  7. - 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  8. - 3 cups all-purpose flour
  9. - 1 teaspoon salt
  10. - 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  11. #### Equipment Needed
  12. - Large mixing bowl
  13. - Measuring cups and spoons
  14. - Rolling pin or your hands
  15. - Baking sheet
  16. - Parchment paper (optional)
  17. #### Detailed Steps
  18. **Step 1: Activate the Yeast**
  19. 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast.
  20. 2. Stir gently to dissolve the sugar and ensure the yeast is fully hydrated.
  21. 3. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes foamy. This step ensures that the yeast is alive and ready to rise.
  22. **Step 2: Mix the Dough**
  23. 1. In another large bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour with 1 teaspoon of salt.
  24. 2. Once the yeast has activated, pour it into the flour mixture.
  25. 3. Stir in the melted butter evenly throughout the dough.
  26. 4. Begin kneading on a lightly floured surface until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
  27. **Step 3: First Rise**
  28. 1. Place the dough back into the large bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
  29. 2. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size. You can speed up this process by placing the bowl in an oven (turned off) with a pan of hot water to create steam.
  30. **Step 4: Shape the Rolls**
  31. 1. Punch down the dough gently after rising.
  32. 2. Divide the dough into small, even-sized balls using your hands or a rolling pin.
  33. 3. Roll each ball into a smooth round shape and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (optional).
  34. **Step 5: Second Rise & Baking**
  35. 1. Cover the rolls again and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes in a warm, draft-free area.
  36. 2. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  37. 3. Once risen, bake the rolls for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  38. #### Serving Suggestions
  39. Serve these yeast rolls warm with butter or jam for an authentic taste experience. They can also be paired with soups, stews, or any hearty meal to enhance the flavors.
  40. #### Tips and Variations
  41. - For extra flavor, sprinkle a bit of sugar on top before baking.
