Recipe Introduction
Bread Machine
List of Ingredients
1 1/2 cups warm (110 to 115 degrees) water
2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1/3 cup plus dash of sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon malt powder or syrup (optional)
4 1/4 cups bread flour
About 3 tablespoons milk, for brushing (optional)
About 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Recipe
Place water, yeast and dash of sugar in bread machine pan and let mixture stand for about 2 minutes. Add oil, remaining 1/3 cup sugar, salt, malt powder and flour. Place bread machine on "dough" mode.
If using mixer, combine water, yeast and dash of sugar in mixer bowl and let them stand a few minutes. Add oil, 1/3 cup sugar, salt, malt powder and almost all the flour, holding back a bit. Mix with paddle attachment, then knead to form soft dough, 8 to 10 minutes. Form dough into ball and let it rise, covered, in greased bowl, 30 to 45 minutes.
When bread machine cycle is over (or dough has risen, if mixing by hand), gently deflate dough. Divide dough into 10 portions, cover with clean tea towel and let it rest 5 minutes. Shape each portion into an oval bun, about 8 inches long by 2 inches wide - the shape does not have to be exact and might depend on the variety of hot dog used. Place buns, evenly spaced, on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Insert entire sheet in large plastic bag (such as a garbage bag).
Allow rolls to rise until quite puffy and almost doubled in size, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove them from bag. Flatten each roll gently with palm of your hand. Brush them with milk and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake at 375 degrees until nicely browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Makes 10 buns.
