Whole grain buns offer more fiber, while white bread can be a budget-friendly option.

Start by preparing the dough in a bowl with all-purpose flour.

Add sugar and salt to the flour.

Introduce the sourdough starter as the key ingredient for the dough.

If you don't have sourdough, create a pre-ferment using 50 grams of flour, 50 grams of water, and a pinch of yeast, and let it sit until it doubles in size.

Incorporate the ingredients by hand, starting in the bowl to keep it clean.

Once the mixture starts to come together, transfer it to a clean surface for kneading.

Knead the dough until it becomes smooth and uniform, adding butter gradually as you knead.

Once kneaded, place the dough in a bowl and cover it to let it rest until it doubles in size, which may take about 30 minutes depending on the temperature.

After the dough has risen, deflate it gently and divide it into portions weighing about 90 grams each for the hot dog buns.

Shape each portion into a round ball, tucking the edges underneath to create tension on the surface.

Let the shaped dough balls rest for a short period to relax the gluten before shaping them into the final bun form.

Flatten each ball slightly and stretch it into an elongated shape, ensuring even thickness throughout.

Place the shaped buns on a baking tray and allow them to rise again until they puff up slightly before baking.
