All-Star Bun Recipes

For a summer of epic cookouts! [Save up to 20% on orders over $100]( [logo]( Sunday Recipe Inspiration Batch 392 [Beautiful Burger Buns]( Every year, Memorial Day brings with it the opportunity to honor the members of our military troops who have died in service to the United States. It's a significant day, observed with visits to cemeteries or memorials and, of course, gatherings with friends and family. This year, as pandemic restrictions loosen, these gatherings may once again become a reality for us. And we may once again find ourselves baking for larger groups in outdoor spaces. I'm predicting that cookouts will be a go-to way for us to gather this summer. So even if you're not attending or hosting one yourself this weekend, you may want to save this email for future reference. Ever popular on a cookout menu are burgers and hot dogs (of both the plant and meat-based variety). And what's the best way to elevate an ordinary burger or dog to an extraordinary one? Homemade buns, naturally! If I had to pick one bun recipe to bake all summer, I'm pretty sure this one for [Beautiful Burger Buns]( (above) would be it. They are just so soft and versatile. I've turned them into hot dog buns, larger sausage rolls, and experimented with making them with different flours and the addition of sourdough starter. You can't go wrong with these! But I might also say that of these [Pretzel Sandwich Buns](. Again, I've made them every which way, and if you're into pretzels the way my family is, you'll want to give them a try. Versatility is not the be-all and end-all of hamburger and hot dog buns though. Sometimes you need a very specific bun for a very specific purpose. For example, if you're only serving (or being served) hot dogs, you may prefer to stick with these [Buttery Hot Dog Buns](. At just the right size for the job, they won't throw your dog-to-bun ratio out of proportion. Or perhaps you want a larger, more substantial bun so that you can pile it with a heap of toppings. In that case, these [Chicago Red Hot Poppy Seed Buns]( are what you need. In burger land, specificity will also work to your advantage. Case in point: you're pretty much guaranteed to build the ultimate cheeseburger with these [No-Knead Cheese Burger Buns](. That's a challenge, by the way, and you have all summer to tackle it. Before we all head for our ovens, though, let's please take a pause and remember our fallen. They gave everything for us, and we just can't take that for granted. Thank you.
