   Proof the yeast with a bit of the warm water and sugar in a small bowl.

   Knead the dough (it will be sticky) until smooth and elastic.

   In a KitchenAid mixer this only takes a couple minutes on speed 3.

   Let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

   I like to make cloverleaf rolls with this recipe, which involves placing three balls of dough, no bigger than a ping pong ball, in a greased muffin cup.
9. 9
   Once the balls have risen again, brush with the beaten egg for a nice brown finish and bake in a hot oven.
