thanks chookie, will do. as soon as I got it I thought wow! what can I try it out on. Saw the cauliflower and thought yep! that will do, cut all the florets off and then read the instructions and saw that with cauli it needs to be blanched for a couple of mins first and then plunged in ice. Too much like hard work unless I had other veges to do at the same time. (we have roast on Mondays so will use them up then). was able to satiate some enthusiam and vac pac a couple of things, but am going to try to test lots of stuff so I make the most of it. bread rolls were funny as I took all the air out of them, and so when they bounced back I was really happy -- good recipe ed  :-*

Ed has turned into me.  He often makes fun of me chatting away to all of you.  And today, I find Ed creating new recipes and posting and chatting with all of you.  The rolls are seriously delicious.  I made a quick tuna dip to have with them for lunch. Very yummy.

Thanks Ed, I will try these tomorrow. They sound good.
CP, I did much the same with my sealer and flattened the jeebies out of some cake. Good tip cookie to freeze first. I was impatient like CP and wanted to see if it worked.

Ed,  made these today and these could be the answer to those who wish for fresh rolls for kiddies, (of all ages),  for lunch.  They took just under 1 hour from go to wow.  Just a few comments/questions. 
Did you use bread flour?
Did you place a dish of water in the bottom of the oven?
Have you considered brushing them before you gave them the 10 mins. in the oven?
The amount of yeast is double normally used for this amount of flour/water.

All that said ,  I think this could be a good solution for those who want rolls in a hurry.  Thanks for sharing .

Lovely looking rolls Chookie.

I learned to freeze first after I saw a friend vacuum seal some muffins. It was hilarious as hers didn't come back to normal.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hi Chookie,

i used just normal plain flour from supermarket here in Germany. I used fresh yeast approx 35 g in weight and had done a calculation for dry yeast, you could try less. I had no water in the over. Next time i could try brushing them as soon as i put in oven.
