What can I use instead of the parker style yeast rolls. We don’t have them where I live.
Thanks

You could use Pepperidge Farm dinner rolls or any similar product that you have in your marketplace.
Connie says
I make something very similar to this, I use kings Hawaiian rolls and skip the honey and garlic and add the whole onion. they are out of this world good!
Lynn says
How far in advance can they be prepared. Could they be prepared on the 24th and cooked on the 26th. Thanking you in advance.
Melissa says
You could assemble them in advance and store tightly wrapped without any issues. However, the poppy seed-mustard shouldn’t be applied until just before baking.
Janet Hall says
What would be a good replacement for the poppy seeds? Would sesame seeds work?
Melissa says
If you choose to use sesame seeds I wouldn’t use as many. Otherwise, leave them out.
