Wrap each roll (loosely) in several layers of cheesecloth, and tie with string.
In a large pot, put Broth Ingredients, and bring to boil.
Put 1 or 2 rolls into broth, and bring to boil again.
Turn down to medium simmer.
Partially cover, and cook 1 & 1/2 hours, turning occasionally.

Cut slices as needed, and use as desired.
Store leftovers in broth, for extra moistness.
