Hamburger Buns

These hamburger buns have a soft and chewy texture.

The story behind this recipe
While I was out of rice, I often ate hamburgers as a substitute for bread and noodles (haha). I had been adjusting a bun recipe for a while, so I decided to finalize it this time. I didn't want to crack an egg just for the egg wash, so I minimized it and used the egg from the ingredients.

Makes 8 buns using a 3.5-inch round mold. For 4-inch molds, increase the recipe by 1.2 times.

Ingredients

  1. 2 1/4 cupsbread flour (about 270 grams)
  2. 1/4 cupcake flour or rice flour (about 30 grams)
  3. 1 1/2 tablespoonssugar (about 20 grams)
  4. 1 teaspoonsalt (about 5 grams)
  5. 1 1/4 teaspoonsdry yeast (about 4 grams)
  6. 1 tablespoonskim milk or buttermilk powder (about 10 grams)
  7. 1egg
  8. 1/2 cupmilk (about 100 grams)
  9. Water to make a total of 215 grams with the egg and milk
  10. 1 tablespoonunsalted butter (about 15 grams)
  11. 1 tablespoonvegetable oil (about 15 grams)
  12. Sesame seeds or poppy seeds for topping, as desired

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Beat the egg and take out 1 teaspoon into a separate dish. Mix 1 teaspoon of water with the reserved egg and refrigerate. This is for the finishing glaze.

  2. 2

    Add water to the remaining egg and milk to make a total of 215 grams. Combine the egg, milk, and water to reach 215 grams.

  3. 3

    Mix the bread flour, cake flour (or rice flour), sugar, salt, yeast, and skim milk together. Add the liquid from step 2, unsalted butter, and vegetable oil.

  4. 4

    Mix with a spatula until the flouriness disappears, then knead thoroughly with a bread machine or kneading tool until a gluten membrane forms.

  5. 5

    Once kneaded, shape into a neat ball, cover to prevent drying, and let it rise for the first fermentation. (Kneading to first fermentation can be left to a bread machine, probably okay). I use a mochi maker (haha).

  6. 6

    When it has doubled in size, the first fermentation is complete. Punch down the dough, divide into 8 equal parts, shape into neat balls, place seam side down, cover to prevent drying, and let rest for about 15 minutes.

  7. 7

    During the resting time, grease the molds and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, placing the molds slightly apart.

  8. 8

    After the resting time, punch down the dough and reshape into flat rounds. Make them slightly smaller than the molds and place them in the molds.

  9. 9

    Cover to prevent drying and let rise for the second fermentation in the oven at 95°F (35°C) for 30-40 minutes. It's ready when the dough rises slightly above the top of the molds.

  10. 10

    Brush with the reserved egg for glaze. Top with sesame seeds if desired. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

  11. 11

    Cool on a wire rack after baking, and store covered once cooled to prevent drying.

  12. 12

    Adjust kneading and fermentation times, as well as baking temperature and time, based on the dough's condition.

  13. 13

    Both cake flour and rice flour work well. Rice flour gives a slightly chewier texture and a crisper surface. Both are hard to resist (haha).

  14. 14

    When making hamburgers, slice the buns, toast the cut sides until crisp, spread with butter or margarine, and add your fillings.

  15. 15

    This is the rice flour version.
    The top image of the recipe is the cake flour version.

  16. 16

    I made a croquette & bacon burger. Delicious!
    For the croquette, see Recipe ID: 17829998.

  17. 17

    Thick-cut bacon and egg sandwich. Also easy and delicious! Great for breakfast.
    Two slices of thick-cut bacon and a fried egg sandwich. Perfect for the morning?

  18. 18

    Classic patty hamburger.

  19. 19
  20. 20

    Add paprika to the tartar sauce from Recipe ID: 17991885 for a summery hamburger.

  21. 21

    Made with a 4-inch mold.
    You can make 8 buns with 1.2 times the recipe.
    Easier to fill with ingredients.
