HAMBURGER BUN PAN

As with 'hot dog' buns, I use a cookie sheet. I make more of a Kaiser, cut a ribbon out of dough and tie into the knot. I have yet to remember to make dough balls and try those, I started out tieing buns for presentation and it's just where my mind keeps going when making rounds.

Were you aware that there is a kaiser roll stamp for those who have trouble with forming a traditional shape the old-fashioned way?

If you read George Greenstein's book, "Secrets of a Jewish Baker", he explains how to make Kaiser rolls without the stamp. There is a trick to doing it well and he describes it.

I quite sure he uses the fold technique for kaiser rolls.I have used it before, but it doesn't change the taste of the rolls, so I just roll a ball of dough then flatten with the heal of my hand and let them rise. Much less labor involved.

You know how it goes, everyone has their own thing.

I like forming mine with the nub on top, reminds me of a teat. A lumpy teat ... ;)
