hello to the freshloafian world ,
as i am working years now in restaurant i am very interested about making my own delicious and easy to shape mini breads.i tried with mini focaccia but it was a disaster becouse it was not possible to shape 150 pieces in such a short time period . They use a recipe by now it has great taste but hard crust . What recipe do you recommend ? i would prefer for the bread to be soft and airy with very soft crust . yAso how i can make the crust to be soft and not crunchy?

Hi Marios, I can’t help you. But I’ll be watching to read the replies. I am interested in soft rolls also. I like Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (Portuguese style), but they are pretty sweet and probably takes a little too much work for that volume.

This method precooks a portion of the flour and liquid, and its use results in a softer bread.
There are numerous entries on this site where it is described and discussed, and King Arthur Flour blogged about it recently:

Let us know what you try and how it works out for you.
i make various rolls for a restaurant in town using a 50% poolish. I add some sugar and olive oil to the final dough and use an olive oil glaze before and after bake which gives a soft crust and great taste. Poolish means less yeast, better flavour and splitting work over 12 hours
yes really but is it very difficult to handle a dough with 50 % poolish if not please share your recipe ? imagine that i spent only 3 hours for the completion of the kneading , proofing , shaping and also baking min 150 mini breads like this in the foto .
currently i do 50% poolish in the morning and then mix final dough, leave for 1 - 1.30 (depending on temperature . Shape and proof for 1.15 - 1.30 (depending on temperature) then bake for 20 minute.
i dont know if thats any good for you time wise. if it is ill send on recipe
