Multipurpose buns from Joshua Weissman: An Unapologetic Cookbook (page 60) by Joshua Weissman

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Made these for the chicken sandwich recipe and it was hella good!

    Very reliable. It's slightly sweet, springy, and is an easy beginner's bread.

    I have never made bread using the tangzhong method (the dough includes a cooked flour, water & milk paste); I went ahead with it and produced a beautiful pan of sky high soft dinner rolls (1 of 3 baking options). With milk, eggs & butter, these buns have a lovely rich flavour. According to the King Arthur Baking website, this method is designed to keep the rolls fresh & soft for an extended period - great when you bake for 2. Just a note that this recipe is actually titled "My famous multipurpose dough" in my book. I will make these again for sure.
