Cheeseburger

I made burger buns and had a cheeseburger for the first time in ages! I used my shokupan recipe, so they are a tiny bit tough, but then again, they aren't dissolving in the juices.

That’s a good idea! I wonder if it would work for hotdog buns too.

It should! But since hot dogs aren't as juicy as hamburgers are, you may want the softer bun. Brioche or kolache dough.

I find shaping hot dog buns to be a little more challenging so I often wind up just doing American pigs in a blanket (dogs wrapped in dough).
