Recipe for long-risen buns
Long-fermented soft and fluffy rolls. This roll recipe is super simple; the trick is to let the dough ferment over time, resulting in some airy rolls that taste absolutely fantastic.
Even though the recipe requires a good amount of waiting time (rising time), you don’t spend much time working with it. I promise you the waiting period is worth it.
The rolls turn out very fluffy and can stay fresh for several days. They taste amazing with a slice of cold butter or cheese. Here is the recipe for long-fermented rolls.

Next day
