Yeast Dough for Baking or Frying

Submitted by Tasses

"Passed down for several generations--our family has used this recipe for everything from cloverleaf rolls to fried bread. It also works as a loaf. If frying the dough, flour hands and pat into pancake size disks. Drop into 1/2" heated oil. Turn when browned. Slice open and serve with butter."
