Chinese Hot Dog
Report
Chinese hot dog is one of the most popular bread among Asian bakeries. Also, it is my childhood Hong Kong style hot dog buns. Some people in Hong Kong called it sausage rolls or hot dog rolls as well.

Instructions
- Pour 1 cup of water, 1 tablespoon of yeast, 2 tablespoons of sugar and ⅓ cup of vegetable oil into the mixer. Then, mix it a little bit, cover the lid and wait for 5 minutes.
- At the same time, in the mixing bowl add 3 cups of bread flour, 1.5 teaspoons of salt, 2 tablespoons of sugar, ½ tablespoon of vital wheat gluten, ½ tablespoon of dough enhancer and mix it well.
- After that, turn on the mixer in the lowest setting (#1) and slowly add the flour mixture from step 2. Then, cover the lid and change to a higher setting (#3) for 5 minutes until the dough is well mixed.
- Take the dough out and put it in a big bowl. Cover it with a wet paper towel or damp cloth for 45 minutes to an hour at room temperature. (To speed up the dough's rising time, I usually preheat the oven to 200F. Then, turn off the oven and put the dough into the oven for 15-30 minutes. Remember to use an oven safe container.)
- After that, the dough rises double in size.
- Next, divide the dough evenly into 12 pieces.
- Then, roll the dough like a rope, long and the ends are less thicker than the middle.
- The following step, wrap the dough around the hot dog.
- Continue step 8 and finish wrapping the rest of the dough. Then, put them on a tray with parchment paper. Cover with a damp cloth and wait for 30 minutes. (Or, preheat the oven to 200F. Then, turn off the oven and put the dough into the oven for 10-15 minutes.)
- Meanwhile, beat an egg in a bowl.
- After that, brush the beaten egg from step 10 on top of the hot dog buns.
- Preheat the oven at 375 F and bake it for 15-18 minutes until it's golden brown.
Notes
- A good Hong Kong style hot dog bun, the bread is crucial.
- I like to use bread flour to make bread because the bread texture is better and soft.
- Personally I like to use the Bosch bread mixer to make the dough because it mixes the dough better and well.
- I added vital wheat gluten and dough enhancer in this bread dough recipe. These two little ingredients make and connect the dough even better. After it’s refrigerated or left over when you warm them up in the microwave for 20-25 seconds, the bread still tastes great.
- To speed up the dough's rising time, I usually preheat the oven to 200F. Then, turn off the oven and put the dough into the oven for 15-30 minutes. Remember to use an oven safe container.
- Divide the dough evenly into 12 pieces and roll like a rope, but both ends are less thicker than the middle. Then, wrap the dough around the hot dog.
- Put them on a cookie sheet with parchment paper and let them rest for 30 minutes before baking.
- Brush some egg and bake at 375 F for 15-18 minutes until it’s golden brown.
