I am not a huge fan of flaky crescent rolls and instead of paying attention to the recipe, I just moved on.  My mistake!<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, Mel posted the <a title=\"Buttery Fluffy Cornmeal Dinner Roll recipe\" href=\"http:\/\/www.melskitchencafe.com\/fluffy-cornmeal-dinner-rolls\/\" target=\"Buttery Fluffy Cornmeal Dinner Roll recipe\"><font color=\"#424ff1\">Buttery Fluffy Cornmeal Dinner Roll recipe <\/font><\/a> in the shape of dinner rolls and I paid attention.<\/p>\n<p>This morning, in the dark of the very early morning, I mixed the dough.  A few modifications:  I always sub Masa Harina for cornmeal.  I buy Masa made in Mexico from Mexican grown corn that doesn&#8217;t have all of the corn flavor GMO&#8217;d out of it!  So, Masa in place of cornmeal in this recipe.  Mel noted that she sometimes makes these rolls with 1\/2 white whole wheat and 1\/2 white flour so I did that and also added some vital wheat gluten to add back any fluffiness the whole wheat might take away.  AND, I had some discard sourdough starter (unfed starter) so threw that in as well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/beardogco.com\/WPBlog\/blogimages\/Nov16\/Rolls5533.jpg\" target=\"Large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/beardogco.com\/WPBlog\/blogimages\/Nov16\/Rolls5533.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Oh, boy!
