Honestly this is such a better use of Claire’s time than figuring out if she can make a hydraulic press to make a candy no one else can eat/make. We love this period of her career.

The beauty of gourmet makes was getting to see the recipe development process. Seeing a professional do what they do best. Running into problem and stepping back and figuring out how to fix it.

[@noba5420]

Gourmet makes was so much better when they chose recipes that made sense... the chocolate bars and baked goods like twinkies and oreos. But when they chose pop rocks???? m&ms?? those were losing battles!

[@Amelia-st5ci]

To anyone wanting to make this without a stand mixer, you can do it! It's a little bit of an arm work out, but it's not so bad at all. I don't spend quite as much time as in the video. In my experience, the dough goes from super sticky/gooey to smooth and only sticking to itself (not the bowl or my hands) in maybe 15 minutes of working it by hand. It's really not so bad to do it by hand.

[@jaredm1162]

I was wondering how bad it would be! I don't have a stand mixer and don't have room for one either

[@serahliz7578]

Only Claire would describe a morning bun as austere and I’m here for it lol

[@bokstav4]

yes yes yes, more Claire to the people!

[@GregCurtin45]

I made this! (more) It really is the perfect sweet-dough recipe. I added cardamon, cinnamon and "butter flavour" to the pastry dough (as I always have for c-buns.) The biggest change for me was working with cold dough. As much as we are all sick of this term it really is a "game changer". I chilled the dough for 3 hours in the first rise; rolled it out stuffed it, rolled it back up and sliced it. So much easier to work with cold. I let it rise for only 45 minutes and the c-buns had expanded but were not touching. In the oven they baked evenly. It took a little longer to bake at 350 (I have gas with no convection - 45 mins). The dough itself is the nicest sweet dough we've ever tried. There is no need to ever watch another video about sweet dough or even consider changing the recipe. It is outstanding!

Yeah after reading the long thirteen step recipe for the dough itself i can attest this is an accurate description. Also I'm a teacher so i relate so hard. I don't want an essay sometimes, lol, just a sentence. Or less. Sometimes less.

[@joemechanic2751]

For those who are going to make this, follow the recipe exactly and be patient. It didn't look like the dough would ever come together after adding all the butter but it eventually did and it turned out silky and smooth. I used to dough for cinnamon rolls and they turned out to be the best I have ever had. Thank you for this wonderful and versatile dough recipe. Next up for this dough are dinner rolls topped with sea salt and garlic butter.

Why would the editor cut away to show the wide shot when Claire was poking the dough? It’s a VISUAL TEST! How do we learn what to LOOK for if it isn’t shown on camera? Yes we got to see it after she poked it, but the point is to watch the speed and the amount that is springs back.

Thank you, Claire! I made this dough for slider buns for weekend celebrations over the 4th of July and they were a HUGE hit!!

It's a laudable goal but this recipe might not be the best way to start, there is lots that can go wrong. This is a simpler burger bun that uses a Tangzhong but is not quite as involved and more forgiving. domesticgothess.com/blog/2017/04/25/tangzhong-burger-buns/

You can get cheaper bowl scrapers that cost about $1, but the one Claire is using in the video is from Mafter and last I checked it was about $11 on Amazon. It is well worth the additional price, it is a stiff plastic, but somewhat flexible so it takes to the shape of the bowl without leaving scraps behind. It does require hand washing is it is susceptible to warping in high heat (can be bent back, sort of). I have bought several of these over the years.
