Meal No. 2692: Mushroom & Swiss Burgers on Pretzel Buns


The remnants of the tropical system called Delta, the tropical storm that cruised across the Gulf of Mexico and then hit Louisiana, slowly passed over the northwest Piedmont of North Carolina the weekend before last. With all that rain and mess, that Sunday was a perfect opportunity to delve into a yeast bread project, and this time I decided I wanted to try making pretzel buns for burgers. 


The dough came together great and rose nicely. Then, the individually portioned buns were boiled in a mix of water and baking soda...


...and tossed into the oven after getting a nice egg wash.


They definitely looked on the money when they came out. And they tasted on the money when I slathered a bit of Duke's mayo on them and topped them with my homemade grilled burgers and added Madeira mushrooms and Swiss cheese.
