Cheesy Roll by Water - Roux Method

Everyone in the family knows that I am crazy over bun making :) My other half gets worried when he sees my scale and all the baking ingredients on the table ? ?there she goes?in a world of her own ? :p Nothing beats the joy of kneading a piece of pliable dough, I find it very therapeutic and truly I am in a world of my own , the end result?a tray of yummilicious herbed, cheesy buns?.phew it was worth all the efforts !

I have to thank Grace of Kitchen Corner for her generosity in sharing this bun making using the water-roux method. I am eager to try this method out for she shared in post how soft and fluffy those buns were , and needless to say I actually caught the fever from her :)) I can't wait till the weekend to try out her cheese bread strips ( of course, unlike hers, mine are shaped like hot dog rolls :)?. I am terrible when it comes to the art of shaping buns ) and after dinner I got all my stuffs ready and as usual Daddy will be hovering over my shoulder and asking questions " what buns are you making this time ? making the buns for me ? " I just answered ? ya ya for you ? * but actually my Piggies were on their way back for their 1 week exam break * they will definitely ransack for goodies to munch on and these buns would be great for them? ? exam break? always make them hungry:p They think more of food than books :p Yay, my Piggies are back so I can carry on baking more stuffs * wink,wink.

Bun making using the water-roux method is actually great?it makes the bun texture very soft , light and fluffy?.P*E*R*F*E*C*T for people who love soft buns..:))) Thanks Grace , for sharing this with us. I love this and I think I will baking some more tonight coz I won?t allow the remnant water-roux to turn grey in the fridge :P What Grace said is so true?one can get addicted to it?I am addicted to it now?Watch out , my other half? more buns are coming your way!

For the toppings, beside grated cheddar cheese , I added some dried rosemary and some paprika. The aroma coming from these combinations while baking was really good?.:p really, it was good! The good news is... the buns still remained soft in air-tight container the next day!
