OUR BUNS ARE HOT FOR YOU
A hot dog bun is a type of bun shaped specifically to contain a hot dog. There are two basic types: top loading, which is popular in
The advantages to a top loader are that it holds the hot dog securely and fits nicely into little three sided paper boxes. Top loaders are generally baked side by side and torn apart as needed, leaving a flat side surface for grilling.
Side loaders tend to be doughier so are more likely to successfully sop up all the juices from chili or sauerkraut without falling apart.
Hot Dog Bun Recipe
Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Baking Time: 10 Minutes
Ready in: 1 Hour 30 Minutes
Ingredients:
1 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup butter
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 (.25 ounce) package instant yeast
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 egg
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat milk, water and butter until very warm, 120 degrees F (50 degrees C).
2. 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.
3. Cover & let rise in a warm place until double in size (about 1 hour). Punch down.
4. Shape each piece into a 6x4 inch rectangle. Starting with the longer side, roll up tightly, and pinch edges and ends to seal. Cover, and let rise about 20 to 25 minutes. These buns are pretty big and will make 14 to 16 hot dog buns. Place on a greased baking sheet.
5. Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
NOTE: Brush the tops of the hot dog buns with an egg white/water mixture before & half way through baking to get a nice brown, shiny top.
