instant yeast
Instant yeast appears similar to active dry yeast, but has smaller granules with substantially higher percentages of live cells per comparable unit volumes. It is more perishable than active dry yeast, but also does not require rehydration, and can usually be added directly to all but the driest doughs. Instant yeast generally has a small amount of ascorbic acid added as a preservative. (Wikipedia) Buy Now

So good! Turned out better than I thought. Only made these to use up leftover mashed potatoes (recipe by Anthony Bourdain with lots of cream and butter). Reduced the salt and added more flour because my dough was way too sticky to handle. Kneaded the dough in my bread maker and let it proof a bit longer. Only made one third of the dough at once and froze the rest of the dough. Turned out really fluffy and still were soft the next day. Had them for breakfast with plum jam, no butter needed. Will definitely do again!

Super soft and fluffy, somewhat sweet, really delicious rolls. We used them for mini ham sandwiches. I followed the instructions on P.J. Hamel's blog (food processor for potato mixture, chilling dough overnight, oiling the counter) and strongly advise this. The minimal directions in the book aren't helpful and will have you thinking the dough should be smooth, when in fact it's very sticky.
