snapshotmiki Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 This recipe was adapted from the King Arthurs recipe by bakingsheet blogspot. The site has not been active since 2007 so if this should not be posted, mods please remove. Hot Dog Buns (ever so slightly adapted from King Arthur's recipe) 1 tbsp sugar 2 1/2 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet or 1/4 ounce) 1/4 cup warm water (105-110F) 1 cup warm milk (105-110F) 2 tsp vegetable oil 2 tsp salt 3-3 1/2 cups ap flour 1 egg white (for egg wash) In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine sugar, yeast and warm water. Stir to dissolve and let set until bubbly, about 5 minutes. 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. Shaping the dough: Gently remove the dough from its bowl onto a floured surface. Flatten it slightly into a large rectangular log. Divide dough into thirds and divide each third into three equal pieces. Cover unworked dough with a clean dishtowel while shaping. Gently flatten dough into a long rectangle. Fold left and right sides to meet in the center. Fold the top and bottom sides towards the center. Keep pinching the edges together, pulling the dough into a tight roll shape (Not that I'm advocating smoking - because I'm not and I don't - but it is similar to hand-rolling a cigarette. Except bigger. And dough). Repeat until you have 9 rolls. Place hot dog buns on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cover with a dishtowel. Let them rise for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400F. Brush buns with egg white and bake for 20 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool before slicing. Makes 9 buns. I added 2 Tablespoons of dough enhancer! And used whey instead of milk!!!!!!
