Hello everyone, I'm Gao. Today's burger bun video is the first video of the chicken sandwich series.
The second is the super crispy fries and the last is the chicken sandwich.
Make the dough first.
Four eggs, straight out of the refrigerator.
120 grams of milk, microwave for 45 seconds.
Check the temperature after mixing.
If you don't have a thermometer, try it with your finger, make sure it's not over the body temperature.
Add yeast, sugar and salt.
After mixing, add the bread flour.
The dough is wet and sticky, so use a spatula instead of hands to mix.
Cover and let sit for 15 minutes.
This 15 minutes is to give the dough time for the gluten to form on its own.
15 minutes later, take butter out of the refrigerator.
Heat it in the microwave for 40 seconds and it's soft.
Have you noticed: this dough has lots of eggs and butter.
Yes, it is brioche bread.
The the amount of butter is 30% of the flour weight, you can use even more butter.
After about 1-2 minutes, the butter is all mixed into the dough.
Because the dough is sticky, we knead it by stretching.
Lift the dough, toss, and fold. Change direction.
It will take about 4-5 minutes, the bowl is clean and the dough looks smoother.
Cover with the lid.
If your dough isn't smooth enough, cover it too.
Just wait for 10 minutes, wet your hands first, then gently fold in the edges, and the dough will be smooth.
After an hour, the dough rose.
Take a look at the dough.
It can pull out strong and thin films.
After dusting with flour, de-gas.
Put it on the board.
The rolling pin continues to remove the air bubbles inside.
The side bubbles are also pressed out.
Divide 12 small doughs.
Take one. There are many burger bun shaping methods. This method is simple and fast.
Pull the dough with four fingers. Using the friction between the dough and the board, the dough rolls up automatically.
Change direction. Keep pulling.
This direction also rolls up. Then pull gently in each direction.
The dough is rounded.
Once you get used to it, you can go faster.
Use four fingers to pull down and the thumb to push up.
Then round it. You see, it's easy.
Put them in order. Take the first one.
Flatten with your hands.
If you don't press it, the bread will come out in the shape of a sphere.
However the hamburger bun is actually a hemisphere.
in the oven.
Also put a bowl of hot water.
Turn on the oven light. Ferment for 45 minutes.
After 45 minutes, brush with the first layer of egg wash.
Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F and 205°C.
Once the oven temperature is reached, brush with a second layer of egg wash.
Then go into the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes.
Done. Bread contains a lot of eggs and butter.
with a double layer of egg wash, it came bright red colour.
Enjoy one now, the bread is delicious and the crust is crispy.
Let cool slightly on a rack and place in an airtight plastic bag.
