Notes

  • When making your dough, hold back on the liquid. Sometimes, your dough doesn’t need it all, and while you can always add more, you can’t take it back.
  • If you would like more fiber, replace up to half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
  • We always use instant yeast but if you only have active dry yeast you can use this with couple of adjustments: you will need a little more yeast and it will have to be proofed to activate it before using. Add an extra 1/4 teaspoon of dry yeast to the recipe, then proof it by mixing the yeast with the milk and sugar from the recipe. Wait for 15 minutes for the mixture to get foamy before mixing it with the remaining ingredients.
  • Shower caps work great as a cover for proofing bread dough. They’re reusable, and no air can get in to harm your dough.
  • This enriched dough is quite heavy and does not puff up a lot. To tell if it is done proofing, poke the dough. If it springs back,  it needs to proof longer but if the indent stays, you are ready for the next step.
  • These buns can be frozen for up to 6 weeks, so feel free to make a few batches!
  • Rolling smooth hot dog buns is very important. For help, watch the STEP-BY-STEP video!
