Hi rg and Duncan

Couldn't find the recipe on that link you gave, rg - found the website, but couldn't see a search box.

Here's my soft white roll recipe:

nobreadisanisland.blogspot.co.uk/2010/08/1050g-of-dough-weighed-off-at-125g-per.html

To convert them to burger buns, weigh them off at around 100g and form into bun shapes as per step 7 then leave them to rest for a few minutes.

Flatten them into baps either with a rolling pin or pressing down on them with the palm of your hand and place them on a baking sheet. Brush with water and sprinkle with a few sesame seeds.

Cover with a dry tea towel and leave to rise - until they've doubled in size.

Bake at 220C for between 12-15 minutes, but check after 8 in case they need moving around in the oven.

Cheers, Paul
