WHOLE-WHEAT ROLLS. Rolls made of whole-wheat flour are not so common as those made of white flour, and for this reason they appeal to the appetite more than ordinary rolls. Whole-wheat rolls have the same advantage as bread made of whole-wheat flour, and if they are well baked they have a crust that adds to their palatableness.

• 1 pt. lukewarm milk
• 1 cake compressed yeast
• 1 tsp. salt
• 3 Tb. sugar
• 4 Tb. fat
• 2 c. white flour
• 4 c. whole-wheat flour
• 1/2 c. white flour additional for kneading

Set a sponge with the lukewarm milk, in which are put the yeast cake, salt, sugar, fat, and white flour. Allow this to become very light, and then add the whole-wheat flour. Knead this dough and allow it to double in bulk. Then shape it into rolls, allow them to rise, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
