Ingredients
5 to 5-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 envelopes Fleischmann's Active Dry Yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons rosemary leaves, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups very warm water (120°F to 130°F)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 egg whites, divided
Sesame or poppy seeds (optional)



Directions
In large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, undissolved yeast, sugar, rosemary and salt.   Add water and olive oil to dry ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.    Add 2 egg whites and 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed.   Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough.  Knead on floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 minutes.   Divide dough into 24 pieces; roll to 24-inch ropes.  Fold ropes in half and twist several times; pinch ends to seal.   Place on 2 greased baking sheets.  Cover; let rise in warm place for 15 minutes.

Lightly beat remaining egg white.  Brush on rolls.  If desired, sprinkle with sesame seed.  Preheat oven to 450°F.  Bake 12 minutes or until done, switching positions of sheets in oven halfway through baking.   Remove from sheets; cool on wire racks.
