Buttermilk Pan Rolls

2 packages (1/4 oz. each) active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water (110 to 115 d.)
1-1/2 cups warm buttermilk* (110-115d.)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons sugar
4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt

In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add buttermilk, oil
and sugar. Combine flour, baking soda and salt; add to yeast mixture and beat until smooth. Do not knead. Let stand for 10 minutes. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; punch down. Shape into 24 small balls and place in two greased round or square 9 in. pans. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 400 d.for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks. Yield 2 dozen. Tasty, quick, simple and no kneading. When I make these I just pinch a small amount and place in pans, and do not turn out on floured surface.
