4B's Tomato soup with Texas Roadhouse rolls!
4B's is a restaurant we had in Missoula that had REALLY yummy tomato soup. I'm pretty sure that's the only thing I've eaten there. My mom occasionally made it for us when it was getting cold outside, hence why I made it today. It's been rainy and stormy for the past two days and I've been wanting a really good soup!
Also, everyone knows you need bread if you're going to have soup. Right? Or is that just me? Well anyways I found a recipe for TRH rolls that I had tried a couple of weeks ago but didn't have the patience to let them rise. This time I decided to be better and it was SO worth it!
Here's the recipe I found from Eat Cake For Dinner.
4 tsp. active dry yeast
1/2 c. warm water
2 c. milk, scalded and cooled to lukewarm
3 Tbl. of melted butter, slightly cooled
1/2 c. sugar
2 quarts all purpose flour (7-8 cups)
2 whole eggs
2 tsp. salt
Dissolve yeast in warm water with a teaspoon of sugar. Add yeast, milk, sugar and enough flour to make a medium batter. Beat thoroughly. Let stand until light and foamy. Add melted butter, eggs and salt. Beat well.
Add enough flour to form a soft dough. Sprinkle a small amount of flour onto counter and let dough rest. Meanwhile, grease a large bowl. Knead dough until smooth and satiny and put in greased bowl; turn over to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk. Punch down. Turn out onto a floured board. Divide into portions for shaping; let rest 10 minutes. Shape dough into desired forms. Place on greased baking sheets. Let rise until doubled.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Baste immediately with butter. Yield: 5 to 6 dozen.
The way I cut them did not make 5 dozen. I cut them at a pretty normal size I'd say and made maybe about two or three dozen.
When you roll them out make sure not to roll them out too thin. And do take the time to let them rise once you cut them in squares or they will end up looking like this:
Make sure they look something like this when you put them on the cookie sheet:
Then, they will turn out looking like this:
They are SO yummy!!
Let me know how yours turn out.
I will post the recipe for the tomato soup later!
