At work, I always dreamed of making home made buns. Burger buns. And not the average burger bones. Most restaurants serve challah or brioche styled burger buns. I wanted a better burger bun What's that means? It's freshly baked. It's not too soft but fluffy enough to absorb the wonderful juices of a well-made burger. Recently, Simon Bowden, an English baker in NYC who posts on Instagram forwarded a recipe for a biga-version potato bun recipe. I adapted the recipe for sourdough. And then I put them to use with a batch of lamb burgers. Fantastic!








Jeremy your burger buns look fantastic! Would you care to share your formula? Cheers, Tia

These look great! One question – how are the potatoes prepared?
Many thanks,
Mike
Thanks! If you boiled, did you use the water the potatoes were boiled in to make the dough? A few bakers I know are just gaga over potato water.
