Prepare the yeast: In a medium bowl, dissolve the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water (between 110 to 120 degrees F). Set aside. Make the dough: Oil a medium bowl with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the bread flour with the caraway, honey, molasses, salt and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Mix to blend. Stir in the cottage cheese and the egg. With the mixer on low speed, add the yeast mixture. Transfer the dough to the oiled bowl. (The oil will prevent the dough from sticking to the sides as it rises.) Cover with a towel and put in a warm place to double in volume, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Then gently push the air out of the dough. Cover and let rise again, 1 more hour. Prepare the dough: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease two baking sheets with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Divide the dough into 8 even balls and place 4 each in a single layer on each baking sheet. Flatten the balls gently with your hand. Bake the bread: Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Place the trays in the center of the oven and bake, undisturbed, 20 to 25 minutes. The tops should be light to medium brown. Remove from the oven. Cool at least 15 minutes.

Sprinkle the yeast over 1/4 cup of the lukewarm water in a small bowl; set aside to proof about 5 minutes. Combine the remaining 3/4 cup lukewarm water, the oil, sugar, salt, barley malt syrup or honey, and 1 egg white in a large mixing bowl. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Add 1-1/2 cups of the flour and mix until smooth; add yeast mixture and add in additional 1 1/2 cups flour. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead the dough for 5 to 7 minutes, until smooth and elastic but still slightly tacky to the touch, adding only as much additional flour as necessary to keep the dough from sticking. Transfer to a large greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside at room temperature to rise until doubled (about an hour). Punch the dough down, cover the bowl again, and let the dough rise a second time, for about 30 minutes. Return the dough to the work surface and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a smooth round, then flatten the rounds slightly. Place on a parchment-lined or greased baking sheet, well spaced to allow spreading. Cover loosely with a towel and let rise for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425°F Combine the remaining egg white and the 1 tablespoons water in a small dish and blend. Brush the rolls lightly with the egg white wash. Score 4 crescent-shaped slits into each roll with a very sharp knife, radiating out from the center. Sprinkle the rolls with the coarse salt and caraway seeds and sprinkle with water. Bake for 5 minutes. Quickly open the oven door, sprinkle the rolls again with water, and close the oven. Bake the rolls for about 20 minutes more, until browned and crisp. Cool the rolls on wire racks. **For a Vienna Loaf: Follow the recipe directions for rolls with the following exceptions: After the second rise, divide the dough in half and shape each half into an oval with tapered ends. After the final rise, apply the egg wash and cut a 1/2" deep slit down the top of each loaf; omit the salt and caraway sprinkle, if desired. Bake in 400°F oven, baking for about 30 minutes more after the second spray with water (for a total of 35 minutes). **For Salt and Pepper Sticks: Follow the recipe directions with the following exceptions: Omit the second rise. Divide the dough into 13 equal pieces, roll each piece out into a 12" rope of even thickness, and space the ropes 1-1/2" apart on the prepared baking sheet. After the final rise, apply the egg wash, but do not make any cuts into the do dough; sprinkle with coarse sea salt crystals and coarsely ground or cracked black pepper instead of with salt crystals and caraway seeds. Do not spritz with water. Bake for about 18 minutes.

Place the potato in a small saucepan and add water to cover by 1". Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium and simmer until potato is tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid in a small microwave-safe bowl. Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in another small saucepan. Add milk; stir until warm, about 1 minute, and set aside. Transfer cooked potato to a large bowl. Mash with a fork, then stir in milk mixture, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt (mixture will be slightly lumpy). Rewarm potato cooking liquid in microwave (or let cool) until an instant-read thermometer registers 105°F-110°F. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and yeast; let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add yeast mixture to potato mixture and stir to combine. Add 3 1/4 cups flour with a wooden spoon and stir until a sticky dough forms. Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead, dusting surface, dough, and your hands often with remaining 1/2 cup flour to keep dough from sticking, until dough is smooth, elastic, and slightly sticky, 7-8 minutes. Form into a ball and transfer to a buttered bowl. Turn to coat dough with butter and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let dough rise, chilled, overnight. Butter baking pan. Mix caraway seeds and pretzel salt in a small bowl; set aside. Punch down dough (do not knead). Cut dough in half, then roll each piece into a 12"-long log. Cut each log into 12 equal pieces, then roll each piece into a ball (for 24 total). Arrange in pan, evenly spaced, in 6 rows of 4. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 1 hour. Arrange a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 375°F. Whisk egg and cream in a small bowl; brush tops of rolls with some of egg wash. Sprinkle with caraway salt. Bake, rotating pan once, until rolls are cooked through and deep golden, 25-30 minutes.

Pour in yeast mixture and mix until blended. Stir in onion mixture. Mix in 3 cups flour, 1 cup at a time. Beat until dough is smooth but slightly sticky, about 4 minutes. Turn dough out onto floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if dough is sticky, about 5 minutes. Butter large bowl. Form dough into ball and add to bowl, turning to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, then towel. Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Butter 2 heavy large baking sheets. Punch down dough. Turn dough out onto floured work surface and knead 2 minutes. Divide dough into 16 equal portions. Divide dough into 16 equal portions. Divide each portion into 3 equal pieces. Roll each piece firmly into smooth ball. For each roll, place 3 balls close together on baking sheet (balls should touch at center), forming 8 cloverleaf rolls on each baking sheet and spacing evenly. Cover rolls with clean kitchen towels. Let rolls rise in warm draft-free area until puffy and almost doubled, about 45 minutes. Position 1 rack in center and 1 rack in top third of oven and preheat oven to 375°F. Brush rolls with egg glaze. Bake until rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped, switching top and bottom baking sheets halfway through baking, about 20 minutes. Transfer rolls to racks and cool. Serve rolls warm or at room temperature. (Rolls can be prepared up to 2 weeks ahead. Wrap rolls tightly in aluminum foil and freeze. If desired, re-warm thawed wrapped rolls in 350°F oven about 10 minutes.)

Cut yeast and butter into flour, salt and sugar just as if you were making a pastry crust. Blend in cottage cheese and eggs. (This is probably easier in a food processor or with a mixer). Gradually add the milk until the dough forms into a ball. When the dough has come together, take it out of the bowl and finish kneading by hand. Add the caraway seeds so they distribute through the dough as you knead. It will be slightly sticky, but that’s okay. Put the dough into a lightly oiled or buttered bowl, cover with plastic or a damp towel and put in a warm place to rise. After the dough has doubled in size, punch down and form into balls: I got a dozen large rolls from this recipe. Put the rolls on baking sheets, cover with a damp towel and let rise until almost double in size. Bake in a 375 degree oven until brown. 15 - 20 minutes.Tapping one on the bottom with your finger should give you a slightly “hollow” sound.
