What is "roll"?

A bread roll, also known as a dinner roll, is a small, round-shaped bread that is commonly served as a side dish or used to make sandwiches. The dough for bread rolls is typically made from flour, water, yeast, salt, and sometimes sugar or milk. After the dough is mixed and allowed to rise, it is portioned into small balls and baked until golden brown. Bread rolls can be baked with various toppings such as sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or garlic butter, and can be made with different types of flour for different textures and flavors. They are often served warm and can be enjoyed plain or with butter or jam. Bread rolls are a popular addition to holiday meals, buffets, and other large gatherings, and are a versatile bread that can be enjoyed in many different ways.
