Easy Homemade Hot Dog Buns Or Burger Buns Food

EASY HOMEMADE HOT DOG BUNS (OR BURGER BUNS)

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl (of your stand mixer), combine the flour, yeast, sugar and salt.
• In another small bowl, whisk together the water, milk and egg.
• With the paddle attachment in your stand mixer or a dough whisk, mix the dry ingredients and add the water-milk-egg mixture and mix to combine.
• Switch to the dough hook of your stand mixer, and knead the dough to bring it together. The dough needs to be fairly wet and sticky. Knead for about 5 minutes, until you have a smooth ball of dough.
• Add the oil or butter and knead for a further 5-10 minutes (I knead it for about 8 minutes), until the dough is shiny, smooth and tacky to the touch.
• Lightly oil a big bowl and place the dough in it. Make sure the dough is lightly oiled on the surface as well.
• For best results, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and store in the fridge overnight (8 hours) or for up to 24 hours. Alternatively, if you want to bake it on the same day, you can cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise for 1 hour in a warm place, until it has doubled in size.
• On the day you bake the bread rolls - turn the chilled dough out on to a lightly floured surface and lightly dust the surface of the dough as well. If the dough wasn't chilled, you may need extra flour on your hands and on your work surface to prevent the dough from sticking.

BURGER OR HOT DOG BUNS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat milk, water and butter until very warm, 120 degrees F (50 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, mix together 1 3/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix milk mixture into flour mixture, and then mix in egg. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape into smooth balls, and place on a greased baking sheet. Flatten slightly. Cover, and let rise for 30 to 35 minutes.
• Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
• For Hot Dog Buns: Shape each piece into a 6x4 inch rectangle. Starting with the longer side, roll up tightly, and pinch edges and ends to seal. Let rise about 20 to 25 minutes. Bake as above. These buns are pretty big. I usually make 16 instead of 12.

EASY GOOD HOMEMADE HOT DOG BUNS

Steps:

• The night before, tightly wrap 1 frozen loaf bread dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Next morning, unwrap and cut loaf lengthwise down center.
• Cut each long piece into 3 equal sections making 6 equal pieces total.
• Pinch cut edges together so buns will eventually come out smooth, and roll into small ropes. *They should be about the size of a cooked hotdog.
• Place on greased cookie sheet.
• Brush with half the melted butter.
• Cover lightly with plastic wrap, sealing the edges of the plastic wrap to the cookie sheet so that no air gets inside.
• Let rise in warm place til doubled. (Mine took about 2 1/2 hours.).
• Lightly brush each with rest of melted butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds if desired.
• Bake in 350º oven for about 20 minutes til golden brown. You may want to turn your cookie sheet around half-way through baking for even browning of your buns.
• Cool on wire rack for about 5-10 minutes.
• Cut open with SHARP serrated knife.

EASY HAMBURGER OR HOT DOG BUNS

Steps:

• Bring a kettle of water to a boil, then pour 50g of the boiling water into a medium bowl. Add 50g bread flour and mix until no dry flour remains. Refrigerate overnight to make the "yudane". Also, leave the butter out overnight to soften.
• Separate the egg, saving the white for later. In a large bowl, whisk the yolk with the milk, yeast, salt and sugar until everything is well-mixed and dissolved.
• Add the remaining 250g flour, plus the yudane, to the milk mixture. Mix until there is no dry flour remaining. Tip the dough out onto the counter, cover with plastic wrap, and let hydrate for 15 minutes.
• Hand-knead the dough for 6 minutes. The dough will be quite messy to work with for a while, but it should come together before the six minutes expire.
• Press the softened butter into the dough, then wrap the dough around to completely envelop the butter. Hand-knead for 4 more minutes. This will get very messy as the butter works its way to the surface of the dough. But, it will eventually become a nice smooth dough.
• Shape the dough into a ball, place in a bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to ferment for 2 to 2.5 hours.
• Using a scale, divide the dough into equal pieces. If making hamburger buns, do four pieces. For hot dog bugs, do six. Stretch/shape each piece into ball. Cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 20 minutes.
• Do final shaping. For hamburger buns, stretch the top surface of each ball so it's tight, and pinch off the bottom to seal. For hot dog buns, stretch each ball into a flat rectangle, then roll it into a spiral log, folding over the ends, and pinching the seams closed.
• Arrange on baking sheet atop a silicone mat or parchment paper. For hot dog buns, make sure the dough logs are crowded together so they completely touch each other along each long edge. Cover with plastic wrap, and allow to rise for 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 320F with convection on, and place another baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven.
• Brush the tops of the buns with the egg white. For hamburger buns, you can optionally sprinkle with sesame seeds. Throw some ice cubes onto the pre-heated baking sheet to create some steam, then bake buns for 25 minutes on the upper rack until the crust is a nice color.
• Remove from oven, and place on a rack until entirely cool. For the hot dog buns, it's easiest to cut the slits while the buns are all still attached together (and you may need a knife to help separate them).

• Add in milk, vegetable oil and salt.
• With the mixer on a low speed with the dough hook attached, gradually add the flour.
• Once 3 cups have been incorporated, add the remaining flour a tablespoon at a time until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 2-4 minutes, until smooth and supple. The dough should be soft, but not sticky.
• Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, 1-1 1/2 hours.
• Gently remove the dough from its bowl onto a floured surface. Divide it into 9 equal pieces.
• Shape into rolls. You want them to be the proportions of a fat cigar (slightly larger though) -- don't worry, they will expand when baking.
• Place hot dog buns on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover with a dishtowel. Let them rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.

HAMBURGER OR HOT DOG BUNS

Steps:

• In a large mixer bowl, blend together the flour, salt, sugar and yeast.
• Pour in the egg, butter and 1 1/2 cups buttermilk and mix on low speed with the paddle attachment until all the flour is absorbed and the dough forms a ball. If dough seems very stiff and dry, add additional buttermilk until the dough is soft and supple.
• With dough hook, knead dough on medium speed until soft, supple, and tacky, but not sticky. Continue kneading until the dough clears the sides of the bowl (may stick slightly to the bottom).
• Lighly oil a large bowl and transfer the dough to the bowl, turning over to coat it with oil.
• Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise at room temperature for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the dough doubles in size.
• Remove dough from bowl and divide into 12 pieces, 3 ounces each.
• Shape each piece into a ball by stretching the surface of the dough around to the bottom on all sides, rotating the ball a quarter-turn as you go.
• Place on lined baking sheets.
• Mist the dough lightly with spray oil and cover with a towel or plastic wrap and allow dough to rest for 20 minutes.
• For hamburger buns: gently press down on the rolls to form the desired shape.
• For hot dog buns: gently roll the dough on floured surface until elongated to about 4 inches; transfer to lined baking sheets.
• Mist tops of buns with spray oil and loosely cover with plastic wrap or a towel. Allow dough to rise at room temperature for 60 to 90 minutes, or until nearly doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Brush tops of the buns with egg wash and garnish with sesame or poppy seeds.
• Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until they are golden brown (interior temperature should register 180 degrees in the center).
• When the buns are done, remove immediately from the baking sheet and cool on a wire rack; This will prevent the crust from becoming soggy.

SOFT BURGER BUNS

Steps:

• Put the milk, butter and 100ml water in a pan and gently heat until the butter is melted. Set aside to cool until just warm.
• Tip the flour, sugar, yeast and 1 tsp salt into a large bowl and gradually work in the milk mixture, then the egg, until you have a smooth dough. Tip the dough onto a floured surface or into a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook and knead until elastic and shiny. Divide into 12 (about 80g each) pieces and roll into tight balls. Transfer to baking trays lined with baking parchment, leaving plenty of space between them, and put in a warm place to prove for 30-45 mins.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Press the rolls down gently using your hands, then brush over some milk and scatter over the sesame seeds, if you like (or, dust with some flour). Bake for 10-12 mins until risen and lightly golden. Leave to cool completely, then serve. Make up to two days ahead and keep in an airtight container.

EASY HAMBURGER BUNS

Steps:

• Warm the milk and butter together just until the butter starts to melt.
