Ingredients for 9 servings:

  • 470 g wheat flour type 550
  • 10 g salt
  • 14 g olive oil
  • 10 g beet syrup
  • 4 g yeast, fresh
  • 300 g water, cold
  • sesame

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 14 hours; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 14 hours 50 minutes

Overnight rolls with cold dough

Mix all ingredients, except the sesame seeds, with the spiral mixer of a food processor until you have a smooth dough. Cover and let rise for 1 hour, using the “stretch and fold” method every 20 minutes. Then place in an oiled, sealable bowl in the refrigerator for about 12 hours. The next morning, transfer the dough to a lightly floured board and carefully roll out into a square approximately 30 x 30 cm. Cut into nine equal-sized rolls. Spray with water and roll in the sesame seeds. Let them come to room temperature for one hour in baker’s linen (a well-floured tea towel will also work). In the meantime, preheat the oven to 250°C (top/bottom heat). Place the dough pieces on the baking stone and steam well. After 10 minutes, reduce the temperature to 230°C (450°F) and bake for another 10 minutes.
