These Texas rolls are so soft and delicious that they can be served with all the entrees or with your morning breakfast. These rolls are a good replacement for ordinary bread.
However, you can customize the flavor of these rolls by adding some other ingredients, like sesame seeds, on top of the bread rolls.
For this take about 2 tablespoons of sesame seeds, if you want to add them directly, then do not toast them, else you can toast them in a skillet first until they turn brown. Transfer these sesame seeds to a small bowl and keep them ready.
When the dough rolls are placed in the baking sheets, this is the point when you can drizzle sesame seeds on top of the rolls and then cover them to leave for 45 minutes. When the dough rolls have raised the sesame, seeds are nicely ingrained in the dough. Now bake those rolls to enjoy with an authentic sesame aroma.
You can also give these rolls are garlicky flavor by using a little secret technique.
The butter that is brushed on top of the rolls can be infused with garlic flavor. Melt this butter in a skillet first and add 2-3 garlic cloves.
