Parker House rolls are soft, buttery yeast rolls folded into a half-moon shape and baked golden. Invented at the Parker House Hotel on School Street in Boston in the 1870s; a staple of New England Thanksgiving tables.
The Parker House Roll was invented at Boston's Parker House Hotel in the 1870s, traditionally attributed to a German baker who folded discs of enriched dough into the now-canonical shape after a chef-staff dispute. The hotel, opened by Harvey Parker in 1855, also gave the world the Boston cream pie and the chocolate Boston cream donut. The Omni Parker House continues to serve the rolls in its Parker's Restaurant dining room daily. Joanne Chang's Flour Bakery sells a sourdough-inflected version year-round; many Boston-area Thanksgiving tables centre on a basket of buttered Parker House rolls and gravy.
