hard roll
Stiff breakfast bread
A hard roll is a small bread roll with a firm, crusty exterior, typically round or oval.
Unlike soft dinner rolls, hard rolls have a chewy texture that holds up well to sandwich fillings: I'll have the ham and cheese on a hard roll.
Regional names include kaiser roll and bulkie.
