These buns aren't anything like those yucky buns from the supermarket. They are both beautiful and take the hamburger to new heights. Can also be formed into hot dog buns. Great for sandwiches, also

To Terigo: The egg and water is called egg wash, but adding this will make the top crusty, which is okay if that is what you want. Most hamburger buns, however, are soft.
