Zubereitung von Kittencal's Hamburger Burger Buns
- Proof the yeast: In a large bowl, combine 1 cup (240ml) warm water and 1 teaspoon sugar. Sprinkle 2 ¼ teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast over the mixture. Let stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine 3 ½ cups (420g) flour (bread flour for US, all-purpose for Canada), 4 tablespoons (50g) granulated sugar, ½ cup (113g) melted Crisco shortening, ½ cup (120ml) warm milk, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Add yeast mixture: Add the proofed yeast mixture to the wet ingredients.
- Mix the dough: Mix on low speed until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed, until the dough comes together and slightly cleans the sides of the bowl. Do not over-flour; the dough should be slightly tacky.
- Knead the dough: Knead the dough for 7-8 minutes using the dough hook or by hand on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic.
- First rise: Lightly oil a large bowl. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 60-90 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Shape the buns: Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12-14 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball.
- Second rise: Place the shaped buns on a large greased baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for 30-40 minutes, or until almost doubled. (A warm oven – 170°F/77°C – can speed up this process to about 30 minutes).
- Egg wash: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 egg white and 1 teaspoon water.
- Prepare for baking: Brush the tops and sides of the buns with the egg wash. Sprinkle with sesame seeds (optional).
- Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Cool: Let the buns cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
