½ cup + 2 tbsp. unsalted butter, 2 large eggs, 1 tbsp. finely grated lemon zest, 1 tbsp. kosher salt,
5 cups all purpose flour

Directions:
MAKE the DOUGH - 1. Pour warm milk into mixing bowl & paddle attachment on mixer. Stir in sugar and yeast, let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Beat in butter, eggs, lemon zest, and salt low speed until
combined. Switch to dough hook, add flour, and beat at medium speed until soft, sticky dough forms,
about 5 minutes.

2. Grease a large bowl with butter. Scrape dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead a few times.
Form dough into a ball, and transfer to prepared bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and let stand in a
warm place until nearly doubled in size, about 2 hours.

MAKE the FILLING - 3. Combine strawberries, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a
large nonstick skillet over medium high. Cook mashing strawberries with a wooden spoon, until the
juices start to release, about 5 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring often, until mixture is thickened.
3-5 minutes. Let cool completely.

4. Grease a 9x13" baking pan with butter. Roll dough to a 10x24" rectangle on a lightly floured work
surface. Spread strawberry mixture evenly over dough, and sprinkle with ¼ cup chopped pistachios.
Tightly roll dough to form a 24 " long log. Cut the log crosswise into 12 slices, in prepared baking pan.
Cover pan with plastic wrap, and let rolls rise in a warm place until they fill the pan, about 2 hours.

5. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Remove plastic wrap from pan, and bake rolls until risen and golden, 20-25
minutes. Let cool for 30 minutes.

MAKE the ICING - Whisk together confectioner's sugar, butter, milk, lemon juice, and salt in a small
bowl until mixture is thickened. Drizzle over rolls; garnish with finely chopped pistachios. Serve warm
or at room temp.
