Preparation
- Put all ingredients into a bowl and knead into a smooth, elastic dough that pulls away easily from the sides of the bowl.
- Gently fold the dough once and let it rest for 20 minutes. Fold it again and let it rest for another 20 minutes - this builds up more strength in the dough.
- Divide the dough into pieces of about 90 g each and shape into balls by hand, using a little flour as needed. Don't just roll them - apply gentle pressure to build tension on the surface of the dough.
- Place the shaped buns well spaced apart on a lightly oiled baking sheet or one lined with parchment paper.
- Let rise in a warm, slightly humid place for 2-3 hours, until visibly increased in size and nearly doubled.
- Before baking, if desired, spray the buns lightly with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C (430 °F) fan and bake the buns with a little steam. After the first 3 minutes, reduce the temperature to 200 °C (390 °F) and continue baking for another 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Shape the burger patties and sear on both sides in a pan. Cut the buns in half and fill with the burgers and your favorite toppings, then serve.
Note: "Steam" in baking refers to the water vapor created inside the oven during baking. To create it, pour a little water into a heatproof container that's already hot in the preheated oven. The steam helps produce a crispier crust and better oven spring.
