Blushing Refrigerator Dinner Rolls

Blushing Refrigerator Dinner Rolls are soft, slightly sweet rolls with a gentle tang from tomato juice and a plush crumb thanks to mashed potatoes. Their rosy hue makes them eye-catching on the table, while an overnight chill deepens flavor and offers flexible timing. Serve warm for holiday dinners, Sunday roasts, or any meal that calls for tender, buttery rolls.

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine the tomato juice, water, sugar, and salt; stir until the sugar and salt dissolve, then sprinkle the yeast over the mixture. Let sit for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and forms a creamy foam.

  2. 2

    Stir in the eggs, shortening, and mashed potatoes, then beat in the flour to form a soft dough. Knead for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic, place it in a greased bowl, and turn once to grease the top. Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours or overnight.

  3. 3

    Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

  4. 4

    On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 4 equal portions and cut each into 12 small pieces. Shape the pieces into balls, arrange the rolls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets, cover with a towel, and let them rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours.

  5. 5

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  6. 6

    Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
