Steps:

• Mix flours, milk powder, yeast and sugar in a big bowl.
• Add the egg and cold water and mix to form a dough. Add in the butter and salt and knead till a smooth dough forms. This takes a while.
• At first the dough will be greasy and seem as if there is too much butter in it. But as you knead and knead and knead, it will eventually get to the point you want it to be.
• Cover with clingwrap and let rise for about 1 hour or till doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 380 farenheit.
• Divide dough into portions of 50 or 60 gm each. Shape into balls and leave it to rest for abt 10 minutes Roll out dough and wrap with desired fillings. Shape as required and let it proof on lined or greased baking tray for another 50-60 mins or until dough is double in size.
• Brush dough with egg wash, or milk, if you want it to be less brown, and bake till golden brown and cooked.
• Immediately brush with melted butter after taking it out of the oven and cover with a tea cloth to give it a soft crust.

Steps:

• Combine sifted flour and butter in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until crumbly. Add egg and pulse until just combined.
• Dissolve salt in warm water. Add gradually to the food processor and pulse until a soft dough ball forms. Turn ball into a bowl and wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Dust a work surface with flour and knead dough for 1 minute. Roll out thinly and cut into discs. Freeze discs for later use or use right away for your favorite sweet or savory empanadas.

Steps:

• Heat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat or in a microwave until an instant-read thermometer registers 110°F-115°F. Transfer milk to a 2-cup measuring cup; stir in 1 tablespoon sugar. Sprinkle yeast over milk and whisk to blend. Let sit until yeast is foamy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs; whisk until smooth.
• Combine remaining 4 tablespoons sugar, flour, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add milk mixture. With mixer running, add 1/2 cup room-temperature butter, 1 piece at a time, blending well between additions. Mix on medium speed for 1 minute. Knead on medium-high speed until dough is soft and silky, about 5 minutes.
• Brush a medium bowl with some melted butter; place dough in bowl. Brush top of dough with remaining melted butter; cover with plastic wrap. (If making Sticky Buns , chill dough for 2 hours, then proceed with recipe.) DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic; chill.
• Let dough rise in a warm, draft-free area until doubled in size, 1-1 1/2 hours (or 2-2 1/2 hours if dough has been refrigerated).

Steps:

• In bread machine pan, place all ingredients from flour through yeast in order as recommended by the manufacturer.
• Select the basic bread setting.
• Check dough after 5 minutes of mixing, if needed add 1-2T of water or flour.
• Bake as normal.
• For dinner rolls.
• Mix in bread machine but use only the dough option.
• Lightly grease a 9 x 13 baking pan (I always use a metal pan).
• When dough is finished shape into 15 uniformly sized balls. I always grease my hands with shortening to smooth the dough out and it helps keep the dough from drying out.
• Cover and let the rolls rise in a warm, draft free place until risen to the desired size.
• I let them about double in size.
• Bake in a 350° oven about 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
• After removing from the oven, brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter.
• Take out of pan and let completely cool before storing.

Steps:

• Saute beef, onion and garlic, salt and lemon pepper in a large skillet over medium high heat, until beef is browned. Add cabbage, Worcestershire sauce and caraway seeds. Cook until cabbage is limp; drain liquid from mixture.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• On a lightly floured board, roll each loaf of dough into a 12 inch circle. Cut each circle into 6 wedges. Spoon cabbage/beef filling onto center of each dough piece, dividing equally. Pull three points of each wedge up to the center and pinch to seal. Place bierocks on a lightly greased cookie sheet. If desired, brush dough with melted butter or egg wash (1 egg white with 2 tablespoons water).
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve hot, or wrap and freeze for heating later.

Steps:

• FILLING: In a large frying pan, cook the cabbage and onion together until the cabbage is completely softened and golden.
• This process can be hastened by adding a half-cup of water (or so) and covering the pan, but eventually cook all the liquid off before proceeding.
• Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne, if desired.
• In a separate pan, brown the hamburger.
• Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne, if desired.
• Mix the cabbage/onion with the hamburger thoroughly.
• You may complete this part of the recipe in advance,refrigerating until needed, or just before you are ready to assemble the rolls.
• DOUGH: In a large mixing bowl combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast.
• In a saucepan heat milk, sugar, butter and salt just till warm (115-120 degrees F) and butter is almost melted; stir constantly.
• Ad to flour mixture; add eggs.
• Beat at low speed for 1/2 minute, then three minutes at high speed.
• Stir in as much remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon.
• Turn out onto a floured surface.
• Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total).
• Shape into a ball, and place in a greased bowl; turn once.
• Cover and let rise in a warm place till double (about 1 hour).
• Punch down and cover; let rest 10 minutes.
• ASSEMBLY: Roll out the dough into a large rectangle, and a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
• Cut into squares of 3 inches by 3 or 4 inches by 4.
• By the spoonful, place some filling mixture into the center of each square, apportioning all of the mixture among the squares.
• For each, bring the two opposite corner ends of the dough square up to meet one another, then do the same with remaining ends and pinch them (all 4) together with your fingers.
• You will see that you now have open slits along the diagnals; pinch these together as well, making a seam of each.
• Water on your fingertips will facilitate them staying"glued" together.
• The end product should be a square with a seam running from each corner to the center where all four are joined.
• Set the squares on a baking sheet (if you had trouble keeping the seams closed, you can flip them over so that the seams are against the baking sheet, thereby keeping all the filling in place and making a nicer presentation).
• Let raise 30 minutes.
• Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 °F for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
