I really don't know what to say. <br /><br />I might recommend these rolls -- http://joyinmykitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/100-whole-wheat-rolls.html, if you're willing to give it another go. <br /><br />If these don't rise, my only thought is that the yeast is actually bad (it can happen, even if it's a new package). <br /><br />Blessings,<br />SnoWhiteSnoWhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12939257456903076156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313143544219095171.post-84966697019839734132010-05-18T20:43:42.291-05:002010-05-18T20:43:42.291-05:00Okay, I'm done trying these...

I warmed the milk like you said, put them on warm car hood in the warm garage to let them rise, but they still didn't do much, so I put them in a warmed (off) oven, and they rose a little, but then were hard as rocks and with no flavor. I'll go through your other bread recipes and see what else I can try.

Thank you so much for your insight! ...Hi SnoWhite! Thank you so much for your insight! I did use a breadmaker to make the dough, and the milk was cold both times I tried (the rolls were slightly less hockey puck-ish last night!). So, I'm buying more flour tomorrow and then trying again on Tuesday. Can I warm the milk before adding (this is added first, then I add everything else on top finishing with the yeast)? I am also going to try the oven trick... I opened the oven door slightly last night while waiting for them to rise and put the pan as close to the door without it falling in, but that didn't seem to help. I even put the pan on top of the car (engine was warm) and that didn't work!).<br />Okay, I'll let you know what happens on Tuesday when I try again! <br />You are very kind to read and reply to all these comments!!

If the yeast is not warm enough (a bread maker warms the dough as it kneads) that can inhibit rising.SnoWhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12939257456903076156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313143544219095171.post-47442175977526313182010-05-16T14:43:11.574-05:002010-05-16T14:43:11.574-05:00@ Christine... oh no!

Did you make the dough in your bread machine, or knead it by hand? <br /><br />I've sometimes had trouble getting bread to rise if my kitchen is too cold. Try heating up the oven a bit, and then turning it off - sticking the rolls in the oven to rise.SnoWhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12939257456903076156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313143544219095171.post-65112005780984077622010-05-15T18:35:01.685-05:002010-05-15T18:35:01.685-05:00Okay, I tried these again today... they didn'...Okay, I tried these again today... they didn't rise! I just bought the yeast yesterday and made sure it was room temperature. I used white sugar and white flour where I didn't yesterday... I did put the dough in a bowl and covered it to rise, before tearing into rolls... could that be the reason? My house has smelled like wonderful homemade bread two days in a row, only it hasn't tasted wonderful!

I substituted sugar in the raw for regular and used WW pastry flour in place of the white flour. Learned my lesson, and I'm trying them again tonight! If they work, I will make a loaf on Sunday and will let you know.
