This enriched dough starts with milk, yeast, and a little sugar so the rolls stay soft and light. Shortening keeps the crumb tender, egg gives structure, and melted butter brushed between the folds helps them bake up with that classic Parker House shape. The result is a pan of soft, golden dinner rolls that work just as well with jam at breakfast as they do next to roast turkey and gravy.

  2. Every Sunday morning my mother made, what we always called “hot rolls” for our family to eat before heading out to church. Those “ hot rolls,” what I know now, were Parker House rolls! Two of those warm rolls spread with butter & a slice of salty country ham, kept our hunger at bay during those hours of Sunday school & the church service. Happy memories! I still have “hot rolls” every Sunday but I cheat using frozen bread dough I buy at the grocery store😊. Not anymore though! I can’t wait to try your recipe and revisit those taste memories of long ago. Thank you for all you do😊

  10. My Dad was the bread baker in our house and on holidays I'd be his helper. This is the exact recipe he used, right down to the fold and texture. I can't thank you enough fior this recipe !! Daddy passed a few months ago and I couldn't find this recipe. Thank you, thank you!!❤

  15. Thank you for the recipe and the reminder about my grandmother making Parker House rolls every year and having them cooling when we got up in the morning. I still have a recipe and the main difference between hers and yours is the fact that she added a little honey they were beekeepers in northern Wisconsin.

  23. My bride, Beverly, made these this morning following every detail of your recipe. She is not a bread baker but she found your recipe easy to follow and they turned out just as delicious as you described! Her Mom would have been proud! Tender, tasty, and they are in jeopardy of disappearing quickly! Thank you!

  24. I personally have never used lard but I am getting some today to try this recipe. My mother was the roll maker in our household. I can remember she had a small porcelain bowl with duck fat in it. She would cut her roll like you did and dip the roll in the duck fat then fold it over Parker House style and put in her pan! That particular taste cannot be duplicated! I think she used Crisco in the dough itself.

  29. I grew up outside Boston , I remember grocery store versions of them. If my Mom bought them, she would always say they were nothing like real ones.
    I love 'em and an gonna test bake 'em with thought to Thanksgiving Dinner

  34. As a chef I used to make potato Parkerhouse rolls for a Gourmet to Go Bistro in Nashville in the '80s. Later as sous chef and an executive chef I trained apprentices ,to make them in very large quantities. This was special since a grew up in the Boston area. Until I saw your video I forgot all about them. To me they were like a great dessert without any preserves or honey.

  40. Team I had them sometime in my childhood, but i cannot remember who made them… The reast of my life I did not have them… It looked so good… it's 1 AM and I am on the first rise in the bowl… Hahahaha

  41. I am team Herb Rolls, for Thanksgiving. Another one of my Grandmother’s recipes. She was a Danish pastry chef. They have Sage, Rosemary, Marjoram and honey added. We always make rolls for the dinner and a couple of loaves to make leftover turkey sandwiches. My gosh they are just the best.

  43. These look amazing, I am dying to try them. I've never had them before. Honestly, though looking at those, I'm also wondering what they would be like to make them with garlic butter and Parmesan cheese. Brush them with just butter and they're the perfect rolls for Thanksgiving or Sunday afternoon dinner, do garlic bread and Parmesan, and they may be the perfect garlic knots for Italian night

  45. Hi Renee, team "where have you been all my life". In the last 10 years, I've heard about and have wanted to make these rolls, but it's hard when my family has Thanksgiving dinner at noon. Is there any way to prep day before and make day of?
