      I made these tonight and while I think the recipe is spot on, mine came out a bit hard, dry and overcooked. What did I do wrong? Surely overcooked but any other suggestions for my next try? Baking tray too big, not enough rise, not enough egg wash, ...? Thanks!!

    ok, and for those who really want the metric system measurements, here they are:
    3 1/3 cup = about 450 grams of flower
    1 package dry yeast = 7 grams
    1 cup of water = 240 ml
    1 large egg = exactly the same :)
    3 tablespoons of butter = molten 45 ml or hard 42 grams
    3 tablespoons of sugar = 37.5 grams
    1 1/4 teaspoons of salt = about 5 grams
    1 tablespoon of milk = 15 ml
    375 Fahrenheit = 190.5556 degrees Celsius so 190 C :)
    your welcome :)
    And foodwishes, thank you very much for this recipe, it is indeed delicious.

    I just made these today--I like bigger buns so I made only six-perfect large size. These guys were not only great they were the best hamburger buns I have ever had. I used poppy seeds rather than sesame and that made them even more special. I have looked for a poppy seed hamburger buns for years and could never find any. BTW--That's the first time I have baked anything from scratch in my entire life. Very simple and delicious!! Thanks chef

    And for us using the metric system...
    Ingredients for 8 large hamburger buns:
    1 package (2 1/2 tsp) dry active yeast (I used Fleischmann's “RapidRise” Yeast)
    2,4 dl very warm water
    1 large egg
    3 tablespoons butter
    3 tablespoons sugar
    1 1/4 teaspoons salt
    450 gram all-purpose flour (about 8,5 dl)
    Note: add 1,2 dl of the flour to the yeast and water, and then the remainder before kneading
    for the tops:
    1 egg beaten with 1 tbsp milk
    sesame seeds
    *bake at 190C for 15-17 minutes

    I make these once a week. Double recipe. They don't last that long. and there are only two of us in our household. Is that enough testament as to how good and easy these are to make? It is about $0.75 to make, too. You'd spend $5 to buy them. Thanks, Chef John!

      @Sanja Filipovic Speaking of igrnorance.....
      "High dose, synthetic and isolated dietary supplements - what I call HSAIDS - make up 98% of the products available to consumers. These unnatural supplements are one of two categories of dietary supplement, the other being truly natural supplements. It’s the research on unnatural dietary supplements (the HSAIDS) that show both ineffectiveness and increased risk of death.
      Truly natural dietary supplements are made from freeze-dried real food, or otherwise are not heated, and the nutrients they contain are natural doses without added synthetics. Fish oil (containing EPA/DHA), flax oil (containing alpha-linolenic acid), and vegetable or fruit concentrates containing many nutrients are common examples.
      Unfortunately, most fruit and vegetable concentrates used in dietary supplements are dried with very high heat, destroying various nutrients. They don’t supply much nutrient but are used in the supplement to make it appear natural, while all the nutrients listed on the label come from synthetic or other unnatural additions. These so-called “whole food” supplements containing fruit or vegetable concentrates have to be “spiked” with synthetic vitamins and other unnatural nutrients in order to list any appreciable amounts of nutrients. Read the supplement facts panel carefully.
      Some companies even claim their products are made from real food with real vitamins when, in fact, they feed synthetic vitamins to yeast, then harvest the yeast to use in supplements.
      Unfortunately, the USDA is yet to address this issue, and the label information won’t let you know the truth, unless the dose is high enough.
      Naturally Occurring Vitamins Provide a Health Benefit. The human body was designed to absorb nutrients from food, not synthetic chemicals. Man has never, and will never, replace or improve upon nutrition provided by nature. This is why nutritional supplements should be made from fruits, vegetables, animals, and herbs.

    These buns are truly "the best for hamburgers!" It holds the meat and other fillings in until you finish eating the whole burger. Brioche buns are too soft and sweet, they tear apart or get soggy and the burger collapses. Store-bought ones don't taste good. But these Chef John buns are JUST RIGHT for the burgers!! I usually have not so much luck with bread baking, but these turned out so perfect. Thank you, Chef.

    I can NOT say enough about how tremendous these buns are. I haven’t bought buns since I started making these about three months ago. I do not vary the recipe at ALL, except to make 10 slightly smaller buns as opposed to the eight. Still perfect for quarter to half-pound burgers. They are easy and delicious! ❤️❤️

  • @shadowseon
    @shadowseon 7 лет назад +5

    I thought these would be difficult because my bread always comes out too dense or dry or something. But these turned out AMAZING. I made them by hand cause I don't have a mixer and I was really worried but the final result was exactly like Chef John described -- light, fluffy, springy, but definitely sturdy. A simply perfect bun. Thank you Chef John! :D

    I loved this recipe. I made them about a week ago and have enjoyed them several times. I put them into baggies (two each) and freeze them. When they are needed, I wrap them in foil, put them into my countertop oven at 300 or 400 for maybe 3-4 minutes and then shut the oven off and let them sit while I go about my business as they thaw (which is usually drinking a cup of tea). Then the buns are ready and taste like they just were cooked. These buns are perfect. They are the BEST thing I have cooked from a RUclips recipe ever I think. I did have to add maybe another 1/4 cup of flour. Using the stated amount, the "dough" was so wet it was like an extra thick cake batter. But I remembered something my hero, Chef John said (as he was poking the dough with his fingers). "And you can see here, it's definitely a little sticky but it's not attaching to my fingers. Oh, it wants to stick, but it's not sticking". This statement is perfect and very valuable for any bread recipe. It tried to stick to my finger tips but pulled off and I removed my finger. I just added a heaping tablespoons of flour one at a time while the blender did it's thing with the dough hook until I got to that point. A perfect recipe which measures the water and flour in grams of weight would be nice, but the touch method worked fine. And I didn't bother with the egg brushing. I saw no need for the extra mess. I put some flour on top to keep the tea towel from sticking during raising and the finished product was just beautiful. Looked like something from the Model Bakery.

Fluffy and light but also strong enough to hold everything together and not fall apart after adding the patty and loads of other stuff.
    I am definitely making these again because they were just so easy and did not disappoint!

    I made these last night because going to the grocery store just for hamburger buns didn’t seem like a necessary trip under the new covid-19 recommendations. I’m so glad I made these. They were amazing! Even my five year old, who previously hated hamburgers, ate a burger and said it was delicious. Thank you for converting my burger hating kid into a burger loving kid.

    I've been making these now for going on 5 years. Always watch the video again at the start of burger season. They always get compliments. I do end up dividing the the dough into ten buns though. Weigh it in grams and slip the decimal. They freeze beautifully.

      @@keishchellethurston5341 I freeze the baked buns. I put them individually in those fold over sandwich baggies, and then put them into a larger resealable bag, and yes I reuse the fold over bags. With the cost of energy going up, why heat the oven more than once, and the freezer is on all the time anyway. And they are small enough you don't have to plan ahead. Get them out when you heat the bbq, and by the time the burgers are on side 2 you can slice the buns and put them on to warm and get some nice grill marks. If I'm using them for other sandwiches, I usually put them in the toaster oven for a couple of minutes (like grilled chicken breasts or pork cutlets smothered with sauteed mushrooms and roasted peppers - although I prefer dried hot pepper flakes to Chef John's beloved cayenne).

    Dammmnnn..
    Tried it. Toped with bacon, Medium Rare meat, onions, lattice, a home made burger sauce, pickles. Best. Burger. Ever.
    By the way, the rising times where totally messed up. I didn't activate yeast and shit, just put everything in a bowl, because I'm only using fresh yeast (1/2 cube of fresh yeast = 1 package dry yeast). After an hour i watched for the dough and crap, that thing has quadrupled... So I decided it was ready after half the rising time. After that the rising with formed buns... It went absolutely mad. after a quarter hour I decided it was ready to bake because those things tripled in Size. And they got even bigger when I baked them.... So let's just say that things got absolutely MASSIVE.
    Thought that recipy would be like 8 medium sized burgers ... But that was wrong. The 8 peaces where for 3 people ( calculated, that all eat two and two are spare). We basically spent the whole weakend eating nothing else then burgers :D

      @billlaut608 8 лет назад +4

      Check out his latest creation: Bacon meatloaf burgers! That meatloaf, along with russet potatoes cut into french fries, is something you could can into Mason jars. So, on a blustery, wintery day, when the desire for burgers hits you, whip up these buns.
      Next, go to your pantry and pull out a jar of Bacon Meatloaf and French Fries. Reserve the grease and cut the loaf into patties that you then pan-sear to warm up.
      For the french fries, the potatoes will have been fully cooked during the canning process, which in this context means they were parboiled. So, drain the fries, gently pat them dry with paper towels, put the reserved grease into a skillet and fry up the french dries until golden brown.
      And there you have it: Delicious homemade burgers and fries, prepared out of your food storage -- and you didn't have to venture out into the winter weather to buy the ingredients!

      Ioana Pilat what are you talking about, from scratch, there isn't any other way to make a hamburger it's not like you can buy a box of hamburger mix from the store, here's how you make them but keep in mind this might be too hard for you to understand, you season any ground meat of your choice to taste preferably with salt and pepper then you proceed to cook with any method of your choice and once done you top with anything of your choosing congratulations now you know to make a burger maybe one day you'll learn how to boil water

      Thomas Brummel, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. English is not my first language, I'm sorry if I used the wrong word to express myself. You do know you can put more than salt and pepper in on your ground meat to make a nice burger, don't you? And different kinds of meat may need different types of herbs and ways of cooking, etc. I'm glad you're happy with your basic recipe, but I wanted to learn something new.

    • @surfingwithsnakes
      @surfingwithsnakes 8 лет назад +1

      Ioana Pilat I said any seasoning of your choice, salt and pepper being the most commonly used but you could put cinnamon on it for all I care just quit being so useless and figure out how you want to make the burger without being told how as Chef John would say that's you cooking
