I've observed that all my Danish bread recipes require higher hydration, due to the difference in US American flour. I made these outstanding sourdough rolls twice now, the second time using 405g water - and dissolving the salt in an additional 30g water, which improved the hydration. Did 3-4 folds at 30 minute intervals and left it to bulk ferment for another 2-3 hours. Crumb was a little more airy. This is an EXCELLENT recipe!!!😃😃😃

Finally a bun recipe!!

Just ate one fresh out of the oven and OMG! Best rolls ive ever made! If anyone wants to use this recipe with whole wheat instead of rye I added a 1/4 cup of honey and topped it with crumbled old fashioned oats and sunflower seeds. I made half of the batch regular size and the other half i split them into two for miniature rolls. They baked 2 minutes faster than the full size ones.

I like the little sayings at the start of each video and I have not noticed the same one twice. I really enjoy your recipes. I baked bread for about 7 years in a restaurant, but nothing ever prepared me for the adventure of sourdough!

Amazing Sune, you are my sourdough hero!! I learned from you everything about bread making. Hydration, protein content of flour, oven spring etc were completely foreign to me two years ago. Now, thanks to you, I know what I am doing. I just made these truly yummy rolls. Followed your instructions to the “T”, and was not disappointed with the result. You truly ROCK!!

Hi Sune, lovely bun recipe. My family loves buns and buns are a nice change for dinner. I got rid of the cling film plastic madness and got me a French bakers linen, now that I bake more. It became a regular tool. Stay hydrated.

Fantastic. Will definitely try this one.

Great way to wake up on Saturday morning!

I made these tonight, and they worked beautifully with even my gluten free recipe! Thank you! I have been so curious about how to work with sourdough outside of a DO. Brilliant!

Can't wait to try the recipe

Great channel! I really like your videos where you change only one variable and discuss how this effects the final loaf. Really helpful for hobby bakers who are still learning. Do you have a video on different folding and shaping techniques and how this effects a standard sourdough loaf?

Hi Sune, I've made these rolls several times, despite initial disappointing results. It paid off! They have become a standard in my kitchen. With experience I get more adventurous/creative, and have a batch cooling on a rack right now. Thanks!

You are the best. Bravo.

Beautiful knowledge.

They are so so good. Baked them today after a night in refrigerator. Morning rolled the buns, afternoon baking. Crusty and full of flavour added about 2 teaspoons crushed roasted caraway seeds preformed kneading, folding, before retarded dough overnight. Thank you so much for the recipe.

Thanks for that. My husband has been asking for sourdough buns for ages. Now I have no excuse!

Sune - thanks for another good and easy to follow recipe. I had to add 2 minutes at the end upside down to get a good bottom crust.

Thank you. Thank you!

I just made a batch of my normal spelt sourdough and will do the rest as in your video. My dough is 75% hydration and half and half spelt and whole grain spelt. I have a very high protein spelt flour. I do have a bit of a problem with the dough overfermenting before it increased in size enough so I am happy to try the 25% increase. I also want them to be done in the morning so I decided to proof them in the fridge overnight after a 1hour proof on the counter. I hope they come out nice. My family is counting on the bread. I especially hope my parents and grandma like them because its the Sunday breakfast (Sonntagsfrühstück) keeping my fingers crossed.

Now let me try that today!

The nice thing about King Arthur All Purpose flour is it has a very high protein content. Their All Purpose flour has approximately the same protein content as most cheap bread flours. 👍 All of their flours are really outstanding quality. I use a North Dakota based miller called Dakota Maid. Outstanding quality, as well. Between King Arthur and Dakota Maid, I think they have everything we could ever need, maybe with the exception of some rare specialty grains.

Hey Sune! I'll be baking this tomorrow and make a double batch where half goes to rolls and half to a normal bread. How come you only go for a 25% increase during bulk rise and then just 1hr after shaping? Feels like they risk being under-fermented 🤔

Hi! Finally a bun recipe! What do you think, can I make those with starter from the fridge and just wait until it grows 25%?

May I ask, when you make a levain, do you typically feed your starter for a few hours and then put that fed starter into a levain, effectively feeding it again until the levain is ready to bake? Or, do you make a levain directly from the refrigerated starter? I've been doing the latter, and I wonder if that was a mistake, this whole time, and maybe that is why I don't get a really good rise in my dough, let alone oven spring.

@@Foodgeek Thanks so much for the reply! I apologize, I was watching a few of your videos yesterday and meant to make this comment on your sourdough for beginners recipe video (where you use a levain). Because when I make my levain for my regular sourdough dough, I typically feed my starter and make a levain at the same time (my usual 6am feeding). Yesterday, I did so as well, placing both my starter and levain in my proofer at 29c. The starter doubled as normal, but the levain only rose a couple of mm. Strange, I thought...

The Max my oven goes to is 250c. Do I just adjust the cooking time?

Hej Sune! If I put my dough in the fridge (4c) as suggested in the written recipe, should I take it out an hour or so early so it comes up to room temp before forming?

@Foodgeek

Gluten is developed in two different ways: agitation (folding, kneading, punching, slapping) or by letting the dough hydrate, like by autolyse or by having a long fermentation :) In sourdough, since fermentation is long by definition, you generally don't need to neither fold or autolyse, just leaving the dough to develop is enough :)

at 02:04 ish, to take the salt out completely is kind of a extreme. I have forgotten once the salt and the bread was not eatable, it didn't taste of anything! The only rescue was a salty dish with the bread, but still... zero salt in bread is very extreme ;)
