Mix 3 tablespoons of active dry yeast with 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1 cup of warm water in a bowl, let it sit for about 20 minutes until it bubbles and doubles in size.

In a large bowl, mix 10 cups of flour, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of salt.

Make a valley in the dry ingredients and pour in the yeast mixture, along with 1/2 cup of vegetable oil and 3 cups of warm water.

Mix the ingredients together until they form a shaggy dough, then let it sit for 10 minutes.

Knead the dough by hand for at least 5 minutes until smooth and not sticky.

Cover the dough with a cotton towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size.

Punch down the dough, knead it a little more, and then divide it for making rolls or cinnamon rolls.
