Step-By-Step Instructions
- Combine the bread flour, lukewarm water, sugar, instant yeast, salt, and vegetable oil. Mix on low speed for about 2 minutes, then knead on medium speed for 8-10 minutes until smooth.
- Transfer the dough to a large, oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for about 1 hour until it doubles in size.
- Gently punch down the dough to deflate it. On a floured surface, divide it into 8 equal pieces and shape each into a 6-inch log.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment and sprinkle cornmeal on top. Shape each log into oval rolls and place them on the sheet with space in between.
- Brush the tops with melted butter and cover again with a damp cloth. Let them rise for an additional 45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) in the last few minutes of the second rise.
- Pour a cup of water onto a preheated baking sheet to create steam, then bake the rolls for 15-19 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove the rolls from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes
Ensure the dough is smooth and slightly sticky, and always let it rise in a warm environment for best results.
