Mix bread flour, instant yeast, granulated white sugar, and table salt in a large bowl.

Warm water until lukewarm, then add to the dry ingredients.

Stir until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes.

Let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions.

Shape each portion into a small ball and place on a baking sheet.

Cover the rolls with a cloth and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).

Brush the tops of the rolls with unsalted butter for a golden finish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
