Notes

1. Always strain the flour before using it into the recipe. This process helps you to get lumps and impurity free flour.

2. To make the dough I have used lukewarm water. Lukewarm water means you can easily dip you finger into the water without any trouble.

3. Water can be replaceable by milk. In that case use lukewarm milk. Milk is a great choice for making sweet buns.

4. Don’t boil the water or milk, otherwise when you will add the activated yeast into the water or milk they will die. So your dough will not rise up.

5. The most important thing for this recipe is time. You have to wait 1 least 1 hour for rising up the dough. Else your burger will not be spongy.

6. I have made 3 large size of burger using the dough. Or you can make them four if you want.

7. Top of Burger buns are not as dark as normal buns. To get this dark brown color, bush each top of buns with eggs.
