THE BEST PARKER HOUSE ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-high until it just starts to simmer, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter and the sugar until melted. Set aside to cool.
• Put the warm water in a small liquid measuring cup and stir in the yeast. Let it sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Combine the milk mixture, yeast mixture, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and half the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining flour, mixing until a smooth ball forms. Increase the speed to medium-high and continue to knead the dough until very smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Coat a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray, then place the dough inside. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 60 to 75 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Set aside.
• Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, line with parchment paper then spray the paper.
• Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto the prepared surface. Pat into an even thickness.
• Use a chef's knife or bench scraper to divide the dough into 24 pieces, then shape into balls to create small rolls. Place in the prepared baking dish in rows of 4 by 6, then brush the tops of the rolls with 4 tablespoons of the melted butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven 350 degrees F.
• Remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle the rolls lightly with flaky sea salt. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter. Serve warm.

PULL-APART PARKER HOUSE ROLLS WITH BUTTER POOLS

Steps:

• For the rolls: Combine 1/2 cup of the milk, the sugar and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add 9 tablespoons of the butter, half of the flour, half of the remaining milk and the kosher salt. Mix on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute. Add the egg and mix until combined. Add the remaining flour and milk. Knead on medium-high speed until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the bowl, about 6 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 7 tablespoons of butter. Transfer 2 tablespoons to a small bowl and set aside to brush on the rolls after they are baked.
• Brush a large bowl with some of the remaining melted butter and add the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
• Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and the outside of three 4-ounce ramekins with melted butter. Place the ramekins so they are evenly spaced in the baking dish. Divide the dough into 17 equal pieces (about 2 1/2 ounces each). Gently roll each piece into balls. Arrange them in the baking dish around the ramekins. Generously brush each roll with some of the remaining melted butter and sprinkle with the flaky sea salt. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until about 50 percent bigger, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, arrange a rack on the lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• Bake until the rolls are golden and the internal temperature reaches 200 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Remove from the oven and brush the rolls with the reserved 2 tablespoons butter.
• For the flavored butters: While the baking dish is still hot, place 4 tablespoons of the butter in each ramekin. Add the parsley and garlic to one ramekin. Add the Parmesan and red pepper flakes to another ramekin. Add the olives and thyme to the last ramekin. Gently stir the butter and flavorings to combine.
