LUNCHEON OR SANDWICH ROLLS

4 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 6 teaspoons Dr. Price’s Baking Powder 1 tablespoon shortening 1-1/2 cups milk

Sift together flour, salt and baking powder; rub in shortening; add milk, and mix with spoon to smooth dough easy to handle on floured board.  Turn out dough; knead quickly a few times to impart smoothness; divide into small pieces:  form each by hand into short, rather thick tapering rolls; place on greased pans and allow to stand in warm place 15 to 20 minutes; brush with milk.  Bake in very hot oven.  When almost baked brush again with melted butter.  Bake 10 minutes longer and serve hot.  If a glazed finish is desired, before taking from oven brush over with yolk of egg which has been mixed, with a little cold water.

These rolls make excellent sandwiches, using for fillings either lettuce and mayonnaise, sliced or chopped ham, chopped seasoned cucumbers, egg and mayonnaise with a very little chopped onion and parsley, or other filling desired.

RYE ROLLS

4 cups rye flour 1 teaspoon salt 6 teaspoons Dr. Price’s Baking Powder 1-1/2 cups milk 1 tablespoon shortening

POTATO ROLLS

4 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon sugar 7 teaspoons Dr. Price’s Baking Powder 2 medium sized cold boiled potatoes Water or milk or equal quantities of each

Sift thoroughly together flour, salt, sugar and baking powder; rub in potatoes or add after putting through ricer; add sufficient liquid to mix smoothly into a stiff batter or soft dough.  This will require about one and one-half cups.  Divide into small pieces; knead each and shape into small rolls; place on greased pan and brush with melted shortening and allow to stand in warm place 15 to 20 minutes.  Bake in hot oven and when nearly done, brush again with melted shortening.

NUT AND RAISIN ROLLS

2-1/2 cups flour 4 teaspoons Dr. Price’s Baking Powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon sugar 5 tablespoons shortening 1 egg 2/3 cup milk Butter Raisins Chopped nuts 1/2 cup sugar
