Like many other dishes, meatloaves were invented in the Roman Empire about 3,000 years ago. The concept of twisting meat filling into dough happened by accident. This method of preparation became relevant for centuries.
Subsequently, there were not only meat types of rolls, but also sweet ones.
The tendency to prepare rolls has become relevant literally everywhere – in Europe, Asia and the East.
