The buns are very imporant, because a bad bun can ruin your whole burger, so make sure to have a good recipe. Here's my favorite:
Ingredients:
- 170-230 ml water
- 2 ts butter
- 1 big egg
- 50g sugar
- 1 1/4 ts salt
- 1 ts yeast
- 500g flour
Preparation:
1.)Put milk, water und butter in a small pot and heat it to 50 °C (122°F )
2.) Mix up flour with yeast, salt and sugar. Add milk-water-butter-mix and knead it alot. After 5 minutes of kneading, you are ready to add the eggs. Afterwards do more kneading.
3.) Form buns of about 70g onto a baking sheet powdered with flour. Give some sesame on top of them and cap them with wet paper towel and let it rest for 30-35 minutes.
4.) Put it in the oven for 12-15 minutes at 200°C (392 °F)
5.) When taking them out of the oven, cap them with a wet paper towel again for 5 minutes.
