Bread rolls feel a little 'heavy'
I have been trying to perfect a soft roll recipe. Very basic mix-
500g bread flour
7g yeast sachet
50g butter
300ml water
salt
Now, I have got it looking and tasting amazing! Just one thing that I would like to tweak and am unsure on how to do so. The rolls have a heavy feel in the mouth. I dont know quite how to explain it, just a slightly dense texture to them that I would like to soften up. I was told that maybe I was overkneading, so tried cutting down on time, not being so heavy handed with them. But it hasnt really made much difference.
As I said, its not a major issue. Just more of something I would like to be able to adjust for this and other recipes I have been trying.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Charlie
