1-1/2 tsp. salt
1 Tblsp. yeast

1-1/4 cup water
1/2 cup butter or margarine

Combine 2-1/4 cups of flour, sugar, salt and yeast. Heat milk, butter and water to about 120-130 degrees. Add warm liquid and egg to the flour mixture. Beat w/ mixer on low for 3 minutes. Add rest of flour to form a stiff batter. Cover loosely and let rise til doubled. Grease muffin tins (do not use paper liners). Stir down batter to remove bubbles. Fill muffin tins 2/3 full. Cover loosely and let rise until doubled again. About 25-30 minutes. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
