Logan’s Roadhouse is renowned for its hearty, comforting fare, and their dinner rolls are no exception. But what if we could take this classic recipe and elevate it to new heights, infusing it with flavors from around the world? Let’s embark on a culinary adventure and create a dish that pays homage to both American comfort food and international cuisine.

Ingredients:

Logan’s Roadhouse Dinner Rolls: 1 batch, prepared according to package instructions

  • Truffle Butter: 1/4 cup, softened
  • Parmesan Cheese: 1/4 cup, grated
  • Fresh Rosemary: 2 sprigs, finely chopped
  • Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Lemon Zest: 1 teaspoon
  • Red Pepper Flakes: 1/4 teaspoon
  • Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper: to taste

  • Preparation:

    1. Prepare the Rolls: Follow the instructions on the Logan’s Roadhouse dinner roll package to prepare the dough and bake the rolls.
    2. Create the Truffle Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the softened truffle butter, Parmesan cheese, rosemary, garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
    3. Assemble and Bake: Once the rolls are baked and cooled slightly, cut each roll in half. Spread a generous amount of the truffle butter mixture on each half. Place the rolls back on a baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
    4. Serve: Serve the rolls immediately, garnished with additional fresh rosemary and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.

    Total Time: Approximately 1 hour

    Serving Suggestions:

    Hearty Soup: Pair these elevated rolls with a comforting bowl of hearty soup, such as a creamy tomato soup or a robust vegetable stew.

  • Charcuterie Board: Elevate your charcuterie board by adding these flavorful rolls alongside a selection of cured meats, cheeses, and pickled vegetables.
  • Wine Pairing: A glass of crisp white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc, or a full-bodied red wine, like a Cabernet Sauvignon, would complement the rich flavors of these rolls.

  • A Global Culinary Fusion

    This dish is a testament to the power of culinary fusion. While the base of the recipe is rooted in American comfort food, the addition of truffle butter, Parmesan cheese, and fresh herbs introduces elements of Italian and French cuisine. The result is a dish that is both familiar and exotic, satisfying and sophisticated.

    By combining the best of both worlds, we’ve created a culinary masterpiece that is sure to delight the palate and inspire the imagination.
