butter until dark brown. Stir in about a quarter of

1 pk Active dry yeast

1/2 c Milk
1/2 c Butter or margarine
1 c Sourdough Starter
1/4 c Sugar
2 ts Salt
4 1/2 c To 5 all-purpose flour

to make a stiff dough; knead until smooth and elastic.
Place in a greased bowl; turn dough to coat surface.
Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts,
until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down dough; cover
and let rest 10 minutes. Shape into rolls. Place on a
greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm

used plain warm water and they turned out well but did
not rise too much. Take it for what it’s worth.

Subject: Chicken Style Seasoning — the good one

From _Country Kitchen Collection_

CHICKEN STYLE SEASONING

1 1/3 cup nutritional yeast flakes
3 T onion powder
2 1/2 t garlic powder
1 T salt
1 tsp celery seed
2 1/2 T Italian seasoning
2 T parsley, dried

Blend smooth all ingredients except parsley. Stir in parsley. Store
in airtight container.

Notes:

Use this seasoning to make a quick chicken-like stock out of water
when you have no veggie stock on hand. Excellent for flavoring rice
and as a soup base.

Make a very simple, easy, and good-tasting gravy by mixing water,
seasoning, and miso (I like the dark brown rice miso). Typical
proportions: 1.5 cups water, 1 T seasoning, 2 t miso.
Increase/decrease seasonings according your your taste. Right before
serving gravy, mix some starch (I frequently use potato starch) in a
bit of water till well-blended and add to gravy to thicken (do this
over medium heat). Add starch until you reach desired thickness.
Quick, easy, and surprisingly tastey.
