Sourdough Cheese Rolls

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon instant yeast
• 3/4 cup warm water
• 1 cup sourdough starter
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 4 to 4 1/2 cups flour

Cooking Directions

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water; let stand a few minutes until mixture bubbles. Then mix in the starter, sugar, butter, egg, salt, baking soda, cheese and 3 1/2 cups of the flour. Mix well. Turn out onto a floured board and knead for 5 to 8 minutes, kneading in enough of the remaining 1 cup flour to make a soft dough. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn to coat the top. Cover loosely and let rise 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until doubled. Punch down, turn out onto a floured board or counter top. Cover loosely and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
2. Divide dough into 24 pieces.With oiled hands, shape into balls and place at least 2" apart on greased baking sheets. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise again until double, about 30 to 45 minutes.
3. Bake at 375º for about 20 minutes.
4. Remove from oven and serve warm with butter.
