BREAD ROLLS



Bread Rolls image

I've tried many, many bread recipes, and this is the best roll recipe I've come across. It's super fast, super easy, and you'd have to try hard to mess it up. The easiest way to get the perfect temperature water for your yeast is to do 1 part boiling water to 2 parts cold. Perfect every time!

Provided by Alicia R

Categories     Breads

Time 55m

Yield 16 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (1/4 ounce) packages yeast
3 1/2-4 1/2 cups white bread flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1/2 cup boiling water
1/4 cup butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix milk with water. Add sugar, yeast, and butter. Stir until yeast is dissolved and set aside for 10 minutes or until yeast has foamed up a bit.
  • In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Use the lower amount of flour to start with and add more only if the dough is really too sticky.
  • Add yeast mixture to flour and mix.
  • Knead until smooth and elastic. (I use a hand mixer with a kneading attachment.).
  • Place in greased bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
  • Oil your hands and shape the dough into rolls and place in a well-greased pan. I use 2 round non-stick cake pans.
  • Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise another 15 minutes.
  • Bake at 400 for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Let these cool down before you remove them from the pan or they will likely tear.

HOMEMADE HAMBURGER BUNS



Homemade Hamburger Buns image

I've gotten a thousand request for these. We're going to make our own, and not only are these going to be the perfect shape, they're going to taste way better than anything that comes out of a plastic bag. The total time takes almost 4 hours, but the actual amount of work involved is maybe 10 minutes.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Rolls and Buns

Time 3h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast (such as Fleischmann's ActiveDry Yeast®)
1 pound all-purpose flour, or as needed - divided
1 cup warm water (105 degrees F/41 degrees C)
1 large egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, or as needed

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  • Place yeast into bowl of a large stand mixer; whisk in 1/2 cup flour and warm water until smooth. Let stand until mixture is foamy, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Whisk 1 egg, melted butter, sugar, and salt thoroughly into yeast mixture. Add remaining flour (about 3 cups).
  • Fit a dough hook onto stand mixer and knead the dough on low speed until soft and sticky, 5 to 6 minutes. Scrape sides if needed. Poke and prod the dough with a silicone spatula; if large amounts of dough stick to the spatula, add a little more flour.
  • Transfer dough onto a floured work surface; dough will be sticky and elastic but not stick to your fingers. Form the dough lightly into a smooth, round shape, gently tucking loose ends underneath.
  • Wipe out stand mixer bowl, drizzle olive oil into the bowl, and turn dough over in the bowl several times to coat surface thinly with oil. Cover bowl with aluminum foil. Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled, about 2 hours.
  • Transfer dough to a floured work surface and pat to flatten bubbles and form into a slightly rounded rectangle of dough about 5x10 inches and about 1/2 inch thick. Dust dough lightly with flour if needed. Cut dough into 8 equal pieces. Form each piece into a round shape, gently tucking ends underneath as before.
  • Use your hands to gently pat and stretch the dough rounds into flat disc shapes about 1/2 inch thick. Arrange buns about 1/2 inch apart on prepared baking sheet. Dust buns very lightly with flour. Drape a piece of plastic wrap over the baking sheet (do not seal tightly). Let buns rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Beat 1 egg with milk in a small bowl, using a fork, until mixture is thoroughly combined. Very gently and lightly brush tops of buns with egg wash without deflating the risen dough. Sprinkle each bun with sesame seeds.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned on top, 15 to 17 minutes. Buns will stick together slightly where they touch. Let cool completely, tear the buns apart, and slice in half crosswise to serve.

THE ULTIMATE DINNER ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY



The Ultimate Dinner Rolls Recipe by Tasty image

Sometimes, the best part of a home-cooked dinner is the simplest part. That's right, we're talking about rolls: buttery and flaky, they capture all things right about freshly-baked bread. Sure, bread baking can seem scary at first, but fear not: with our easy guide, you'll be making some of the best dinner rolls around. Pair 'em with any meal and you've got yourself a winner.

Provided by Pierce Abernathy

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup whole milk
½ cup warm water
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup sugar
2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast, 1 packet
4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
neutral oil, for greasing
sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the warm milk, warm water, melted butter, and sugar.
  • Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the wet ingredients, stir to combine, and let stand for 5 minutes, until foamy
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, and stir to combine. Beat 1 egg, then add to the bloomed yeast mixture. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour and use a knife to stir until the mixture just comes together and forms a dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth. Add more flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking. To test if it's done, tear off a small piece of dough and stretch into a thin layer. If the dough doesn't rip, it's ready. Or, press a finger into the dough to see if it bounces back.
  • Lightly grease a large glass bowl with oil. Add the dough, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  • Punch down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead for a few more minutes, just until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
  • Divide the dough into 16 equal balls, roughly the size of tangerines.
  • Knead the balls, gathering the edges of the dough toward the center to make a taut, round ball with a smooth top.
  • Place the rolls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl. Uncover the rolls and brush with the egg wash. Lightly sprinkle the rolls with sea salt.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls have lightly browned and doubled in size.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly: To ensure the buns rise properly, activate the yeast in warm water with a little sugar. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes foamy.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in better-tasting buns. Use unbleached all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, and unsalted butter for the best results.
  • Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough develops the gluten and helps it become smooth and elastic. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it springs back when you poke it.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: Place the dough in a warm, draft-free place to rise. The dough should double in size, which usually takes about 1-2 hours.
  • Shape the buns evenly: When shaping the buns, make sure they are all about the same size and shape. This will help them bake evenly.
  • Bake the buns at a high temperature: Baking the buns at a high temperature (400°F) will create a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.
  • Brush the buns with butter: Before baking, brush the buns with melted butter. This will help them brown and give them a shiny glaze.

Conclusion:

Freshly baked buns are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They can be served plain, or topped with your favorite spreads, meats, or cheeses. With a little practice, you can easily make delicious homemade buns that will impress your family and friends.
