burger buns homemade
February 19th, 2019 | main dishes
A burger is only as good as its buns. If you want to prepare “fast food” at home, then please with homemade bread rolls. Everything else is not worth the effort. And hey, then it’s almost “slow food”. Here is the recipe for the best burger buns in the world…
This post has been planned for a long time for today. Well, last Saturday, I was visiting bread sommelier Wolfgang Heyderich in his bakery and now, I do not even know if I can call these burgers rolls the “best in the world” any longer. After what I learned there about dough handling, and bread qualities, I have become quite meek with my rudimentary baking skills…
Nevertheless, I have the recipe for ages in my notebook. And we always loved the buns with a variety of fillings. Yes, O.K., the 6 yolks are maybe a small material battle… admittedly. But I always use the egg white elsewhere, for example for Amaretti biscuits (I’ll upload the recipe for that soon).
Anyway, they are wonderfully yellow, wonderfully fine-pored, and simply delicious. Have fun with baking and enjoy your burgers!

AND THIS IS HOW THE WIFE OF THE CAPTAIN DOES IT
The rolls can be frozen very well, for example, for a barbecue party or a children’s birthday.
Airtight packed in freezer bags you can keep the buns for some weeks. After thawing, moisten with water and bake briefly at 200° C until they are crispy or roast the halves in a contact grill or on the charcoal grill.

Cavatelli alle Vongole – pasta with clams
Recently my dearest Captain was on shore leave in Molfetta/Italy together with Leonardo. They had pasta with clams and he raved about this dish in our evening phone call. There, I decided to make my try and prepare it at home one day. Luckily, Leonardo gave him a packet of original south Italian Cavatelli pasta to take home – they are said to be the best pasta ever with clams.

Sweet shore leave on La Palma
The market hall of Santa Cruz de La Palma is cozy and clear. Many small shops line up around a square courtyard. It’s the usual offer of Mediterranean markets: fruits and vegetables, fish, meat, poultry, spices, flowers and a number of small bars for coffee or a quick glass of wine. But there is a special feature here in St. Cruz: freshly squeezed sugarcane juice – on request also with “shot” – that tastes like more.

Shore leave Lisbon: Breakfast in Belem
A special way to get to know foreign cities and countries is a visit to a bakery or pastry shop. The variety of different types of bread and the selection of the most diverse pastries regularly lure my captain on a discovery tour to the most beautiful pastry shops in the world. One of them he found in Lisbon, namely the Pastéis de Belém. The good: from the cruise ship, it is very easy to reach by bike or on foot. Here is the captain’s shore leave recommendation: “Breakfast in Lisbon”
