Tomato juice and mashed potatoes are the key ingredients for these rosy rolls. They are so delicious hot out of the oven with a bit of butter brushed on top.

Time 5h

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup room temperature tomato juice
½ cup lukewarm water (100 degrees F/38 degrees C)
⅔ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
2 eggs
⅔ cup melted shortening
1 cup mashed potatoes
6 cups all-purpose flour, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine the tomato juice, water, sugar, and salt in a large bowl, stir until the sugar and salt dissolve, and sprinkle the yeast over the mixture. Let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam.
  • Mix in the eggs, shortening, and mashed potatoes, and beat in the flour to make a soft dough. Knead for about 5 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic, and place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top of the dough. Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Line baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
  • Working on a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 4 equal pieces, and cut each into 12 small pieces. Roll the pieces into balls, place the rolls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets, cover with a towel, and let the rolls rise in a warm place until double, about 2 hours.
  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.
