Salty Rye Bread Yeast Rolls image

Another ole time recipe. From a neighbors aunt in Mi. Around 1960 These are delicious and well worth the time it takes to make. Remember if you boil potatoes the night before for dinner, save your potato water, for these rolls. A saying: You never fail unless you stop trying.
