Hamburger Buns, Finally!

Alright, I haven't had a bloody hamburger bun in three years, well, a good one I mean. (Don't try the Whole Foods gluten-free Bakehouse ones, they're awful) But last night! I made the Chebe cheese bread, and took two balls of dough and flattened them out about three & 1/2 inches wide and only 1/2 inch high, and made them with part romano cheese and part chedder. They were a tiny bit doughy in the middle, but Chebe always is, it's just because of the cheese I think. And I cooked some chopped garlic and onion into my burger patties, and I almost burst into tears it was so good. I haven't had a burger on a bun in three years, and this was SO GOOD!!!!! I'm gonna try hot dog buns soon........

YAY!!!!!!!!

That sounds so good!! Too bad they dont have Chebe where I live!

Kinikinink makes fantastic hamburger buns too.

Actually, the cheapest way to get Chebe is to order online a case of 'no-frills' stuff, you have to measure out the mix but it's cheaper.

Thanks for posting, all the hamburger buns I ever tried disappointed me...I will try the Kinnicink next time.

They don't have Chebe here either, but a warning about Kinnickinnik...they smell bad. I would call it a stench. Maybe I'm the only one, but I'm sure glad I don't have to eat them. I made Ty a bunwich one time, and just about choked on the smell of them. I think he ate it all. I know they come in a package of four for around $6 or $7 and he only ate three. We threw the rest out. Check with Kinnickinnik eating friends to see what they think of the smell. It's entirely possible that I'm super senstive to smell. I can't be in the room if someones making Kraft Dinner - that horrible fake cheese smell. Blech!

Meanwhile, we are still looking for a decent hamburger bun (that doesn't smell bad) that is either reasonably priced or easy to bake AND tastes good.

Well, the Chebe was rather easy to bake. It calls for a certain amount of cheese, which I used mostly cheddar and a little fresh grated romano, it smelled wonderful, tasted wonderful.....

I made really awesome hamburger buns recently. I used the Best Ever Flax Meal Bread recipe that has been floating around on this forum. Then I used a large scoop (like an ice cream scoop with a spring release) to get a good uniform size bun. I cooked them on a muffin top pan wihich mad a perfect shape. Then I sprinkled a few sesame seeds on top before cooking. They were awesome!

If you try this, I recommend that when you scoop the batter out onto the pan then with a wet hand, pat the dough down to like a thick pancake - it will puff up when it rises and bakes.

I too just made the hamburger buns using Lorka's recipe. I think I used about a 1/2c. per bun. did the sesame on top also!!!!

I love the buns from Against the Grain Gourmet......never found any others that are this yummy!!!!On our pasta nights I use the crusty rolls from Everybody Eats......

It is so wonderful to have choices!!!!!

What is a muffin top pan? Do you think another type of pan could be used, or would they not turn out a proper shape?

Hmmm, I'm not sure how to describe it . . . a muffin top pan was designed to bake just the muffin top (I've also heard the term used to describe the part of a person that hangs over jeans that are too tight - lol). Anyway, it is kind of like a cookie sheet with big round, but shallow indents in them. Does that make any sense?

Ahh - better yet - here is a picture of it:

It worked out very well for making very large/sandwich/bun sized rolles. I am now looking for a good hot dog/grinder roll pan. I think King Arthur has them.

I didn't think they smelled bad! :) I did think they were crumbly and if you put any toppings on your burger the bun will fall apart. I'd rather just go without.

Cool deal, thanks for the info!!

Yes indeedy, he is 4 years old and we often call him Darth Ezra... or sometimes Dr. Destructo. His aspiration in life is to be a super villain when he grows up :huh: Sometimes I worry :rolleyes:

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat.  I am going to keep checking. Thank you. The Azure Market looks promising 😁 Take care S

      I’m glad you have a clear answer.  Some endoscopes have enough magnification for the doctor to see the damage during the procedure.

      Welcome to the club!😉 This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I could not find the thread, but I recall at least one user who was drinking regular gluten beer daily but getting celiac blood tests done often (I think it was monthly) and doing a biopsy each year and all celiac disease tests were always negative. Everyone is different, but in general regular beer would be considered low gluten (not gluten-free!). I have no issues with Daura Damm, but those who are super sensitive might.

      Azure Standard (https://www.azurestandard.com/) is one of my gluten-free vendors. I've purchased nuts, "grains", flours, and many other products there. If you are not familiar with Azure, you have to set up an account (no cost) and get your purchases either via shipping (expensive) or "drop" (free if you buy a reasonable minimum). Search their website for a drop location in your area. Each drop location has a local volunteer(?) coordinator who coordinates with the local customers. I go to a drop 4-5 miles from my home that delivers every 2 weeks. We seem to range from 8-18 customers at a given delivery. The downside of the drop is that you have to be there when they say. They give you a few days notice of the precise time, though, and they are punctual. Their pricing relative to other vendors for various products ranges from best price to overpriced, so you have to shop and compare. Quality is mostly good but once in a while you get a dud - however they've been very responsive to giving me a credit on the few occasions when I've complained. In my opinion, they are not as transparent about gluten as they could be. Some products are labeled "gluten free" and so far I trust that. Many products are labeled "Azure Market products are re-packaged by Azure for your convenience in a facility that meets Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) standards, including an approved allergen control program." I've corresponded with them over this and they all but say this means gluten free. I've come to trust this, with a little nervousness, but I wish they would be more explicit. They also sell a lot of gluten-containing products. Frankly, I think they are overlooking a business opportunity to become a trusted source for the gluten-free community by not being more clear about gluten. Among Azure products I've purchased are "Walnuts, Baker's Pieces, Raw", "Cashews, Raw, Large White Pieces, Organic" and "Missouri Northern Pecan Grower Pecans Fancy Native, Raw, Halves". The walnuts and cashews were very good and the pecans were fabulous. For almonds, I've been buying Blue Diamond unsalted when they go on sale (mostly from Safeway). The salted ones are probably fine too but the flavored ones I avoid now that I am gluten-free. I also buy products including nuts from CostCo (cashews, shelled pistachios). Their nuts usually contain a "made in a facility that processes wheat" statement, which is scary. I've contacted customer service about various Kirkland products and they will usually give you a response <<for a specific lot>> whether it really was made in a wheat facility (sometimes yes sometimes no). For the "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews, Unsalted, 40 oz" and "Kirkland Signature Shelled Pistachios, Roasted & Salted, 1.5 lbs", I got a "safe" answer and I ate them. I got an "unsafe" answer once for "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews with Sea Salt, 2.5 lbs" and "Kirkland Signature Dry Roasted Macadamia Nuts, Salted, 1.5 lbs" and I don't look at these anymore. Again, these answers were given for specific lots only. They will accept an unopened return for cash if you find out you don't want it. Costco also sells "Kirkland Signature Super Extra-Large Peanuts, 2.5 lbs" that are labeled gluten free. My celiac kid eats them all the time. I pretty much only eat food that I prepare myself from scratch. My celiac symptoms are not that overt, so I can't say for certain I could identify a glutening. However, my antibody levels dropped 25 fold (into normal range) since my dx earlier this year. Hope this helps.
