Homemade Parker House Rolls Recipe (video)

Parker House Rolls come from the late 19th century, and like so many recipes of that era, there have evolved a few regional variations over the years. These rolls are fluffy and tender with a LOT of butter in them. The small amount of potato flour really helps them stay tender, and the butter adds a wonderful richness with a nice crispy outside.

We used these with our pulled pork from last week, but they are incredibly versatile. They even keep pretty decently. We put them in a zipper bag and just popped them into the toaster for the next couple of days whenever we wanted one. They're good for barbecue related stuff, but also make nice little general-purpose dinner rolls. If you can't get your hands on potato flour, you can use mashed potato flakes instead. Remember: Potato flour is not the same as potato starch!

because I was told they created Parker House rolls and Boston Cream Pie! I was not disappointed in either. Adding the proverbial cherry on top, they upgraded me to the Honey Fitz Suite. I was behind a couple checking out. The couple gave the clerk hell about everything including the renovation noise. I stepped up and in awe said this place is gorgeous and I’m so happy to be here. The clerk gave me the keys to a gorgeous suite.
