Recipe by Alison Roman Yeasted doughs might seem daunting to novice bakers, but these rolls are very simple to make.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/4-ounce envelope active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoon)
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
  • 2 teaspoons dill seeds
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus more
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted, divided, plus more for bowl and parchment paper

Instructions

  1. Gently heat milk until warm to the touch (an instant-read thermometer should register 120 °F–130 °F). Add sugar and yeast and whisk to combine. Add buttermilk; let sit until yeast starts to foam, 5 –10 minutes.
  2. Combine onion, fresh dill, dill seeds, salt, and 2 1/2 cups flour in a large bowl. Stir in milk mixture and 2 tablespoons butter, adding more flour as needed (dough will initially be fairly wet), until a sticky dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
  3. Transfer dough to a lightly buttered bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm, draft-free area until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Punch down dough and let rise until doubled again, about 1 hour. Punch down dough and, using a pastry scraper or a sharp knife, divide into 12 pieces.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly butter top. Cupping your hand over and using your palm, roll each piece of dough on work surface into a ball and place on prepared baking sheet, spacing at least 2" apart (you need to leave enough room so that they're not touching after they've risen). Brush tops with remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover loosely with plastic wrap; let rise until almost doubled in size, 20 –30 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 °F.
  6. Bake rolls until puffed and deep golden brown on the tops and bottoms, 15 –20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool slightly before serving.
  7. DO AHEAD: Rolls can be made 3 hours ahead. Reheat before serving, if desired.
