| 1. Pour warm water into a large bowl, sprinkle yeast over top, and let stand until frothy at least ten minutes. | 2. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, along with the salt, and 1/2 teaspoon each of the herbs. | 3. The remaining oil, and herbs get mixed together in a bowl for the final brushing later after formed, but just before going into the oven. | 4. Add in 3 cups of the flour and make a soft dough. Place onto a floured bread board and knead for 10 to 15 minutes, adding just enough flour as needed only. | 5. Place in a oiled large bowl, turning to coat, and cover with plastic wrap. | 6. Set into a draft free warm area and let double about 2 hours. | 7. Grease baking sheet and set aside. | 8. After doubled punch down the dough and divide into twelve portions, to make 12 buns. Roll, pinch and form by tucking under. | 9. Place onto prepared baking sheet, cover loosely with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator of up to 24 hours. But not less than 12 hours. | 10. When ready to bake remove and place on counter and let come to room temperature, which will take about an hour or so. | 11. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. | 12. Mix the remaining oil and herbs if you haven't already done so, and brush tops of each roll. | 13. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes until golden or tapping bottoms sound hollow. | 14. I also have sliced red or yellow tomatoes or grape tomatoes and placed on top before baking. Also caramelize a thinly sliced onion and you can also place that on top of each and they become crispy while baking also. | 15. Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
