Yes, the famous rolls with a mind-bending homemade cinnamon honey butter. Some say they can't be recreated... we'll see about that.
INGREDIENTS:
Roadhouse Rolls (around 65-68% hydration):
3.25 teaspoons instant yeast - 12g
120g cup warm water
1050g all-purpose flour
465g whole milk, Scalded and cooled to lukewarm
110g granulated sugar
2 teaspoons fine sea salt -12g
1/8 teaspoon diastatic malt powder
50g unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
2 whole eggs
3 tbsp. melted butter for brushing
Smoked flakey salt
Charred Cinnamon Honey Butter:
3 cinnamon sticks, lightly charred, broken into tiny pieces by pounding
3/4 cup salted butter, softened - 161g
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt - 2 g
1/4 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon very finely ground black pepper - less than a gram
1/4 cup powdered sugar - 29g
1 tablespoon wildflower honey - 20g
1 tablespoon buckwheat honey - 20g
1 vanilla bean, scraped of beans
INSTRUCTIONS:
Roadhouse Rolls (around 65-68% hydration):
Preheat oven to 375F
In a medium-size pot, over medium-high, add the milk, bring it to a boil, cut the heat, pour it into a bowl, and cool it down over an ice bath. Once it cooled down, add 120g. of filtered water, heat it to 95F, and add the yeast, dissolve, and reserve.
In a stand mixer bowl, add the flour, sugar, salt, and diastatic malt powder; this last ingredient is optional. (helps with color and flavor)
Using the hook attachment, add in a string the melted butter (not hot) and mix; once it is incorporated, add the milk and two whole eggs. Mix until the dough does not stick to the sides of the bowl.
Take your dough out, form a ball, place it into a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise for one to one and a half hours at room temperature or until it doubles its size.
Take off the plastic wrap and punch your dough, pour it out on a floured surface, cut your dough into 40 even pieces, shape them into balls by maintaining board contact constantly.
Place them on a lined sheet tray, cover it with plastic wrap, and let them proof for twenty minutes. Then, take the wrap off, spray them with water and immediately pop them in the oven for 15 to 18 min.
Brush each one of the buns with melted butter, and sprinkle some smoked flaky salt on top.
Charred Cinnamon Honey Butter:
Using a blow torch, char three cinnamon sticks on both sizes. Let them cool down, break them into small pieces, blend them until you get a fine powder, and pass it through a sifter.
Place the softened butter, salt, a black pepper pinch, two teaspoons of charred cinnamon powder, a bit of freshly grated nutmeg, and the beans of half a vanilla bean pod in a mixing bowl and give it a good whisk until smooth. Add the powder sugar, and whisk vigorously to incorporate some air.
Add and incorporate honey (optional).
All of my vintage watches have had sterile link casebacks just waiting for an engraving link – and many have been well under $1,000. Like an oddity from a well-curated vintage shop, an old watch may be a much more special and specific vehicle for an engraving, especially if you are buying the gift for someone who might not share your raw enthusiasm for link the wide world of watches.
I go to San Francisco a fair amount, but I don't get into Union Square a lot, so I asked Meng to link help me out. "Right link in Union Square, the Neiman Marcus Rotunda is close to a few well-known ADs and boutiques and is a great spot to grab a bite and do some watch spotting in a really lovely setting – link though be ready for lines."
How do you narrow down the choices when picking an link imaginary inheritance watch? I link say go glamorous because this is a made-up fantasy. Why let anything interfere with your perfect watch in your perfect dream world? But let's keep it realistic enough that you can still imagine it existing in your daily rotation and not in a bank vault somewhere. I want to inherit a part of the person and wear a part of them on link my own person.
We need some edits.
