Instructions
Add water and starter to bowl and whisk together.
Whisk in salt then add flour and combine until dough is smooth, and slightly tacky.
Cover and let proof in for about 12 hours (overnight). Dough should be about three times the size as when first combined.
Pour dough out on to lightly floured surface and knead for 3-5 minutes, ending in an even ball. Use a bench scraper to half the ball(s) until you have 16 equal pieces. Place each dough ball on a parchment paper covered baking sheet.
Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for another two hours.
In the last 30 minutes of the rise time, preheat oven to 425degF.
Once rolls have approximately doubled in size, remove plastic and score each top (either an X or three parallel lines). Place in oven to bake for 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and immediately rub each roll top with butter. Let rest on baking sheet for 15 minutes then remove to basket or plate for serving.
You can store these rolls in an airtight container, once they have fully cooled, for 3-5 days.
