Sometimes recipes might not work the way you want, this can be due to a number of things, but mainly: different brands of flour may have different protein levels and water absorption capabilities that may result in a different texture.
This is similar with sugar and butter, but with varying respective moisture and fat contents. To provide you with a higher success rate with the recipe, we will link you to the ingredient that I use, so that you get the closest results.
I've also added my list of equipment, so you can use the exact same ones if you wish, to feel more confident with the recipe.

- 250g T55 flour / plain flour
- 1/2 egg + extra for egg wash
-
30g sugar
-
4g salt
-
10g active dry yeast
-
135ml water
-
10g softened butter
- 50g levain (skip this if you don't have one)
- 50g shaved Emmental cheese
- 50g tomato sauce
- 1 tsp mixed herbs
- pinch of salt & pepper
- 3 slices of chorizo for each bun
- drizzle of hot honey
- Dark Pan Baking Tray (Regular or Non-Stick)
- Parchment Paper or Reusable Baking Sheets (e.g., SILPAT)
- Stand Mixer
- Rolling Pin
- Small Mixing Bowl
- Small Knife
- Mixing Spoon
- Spatula

- In a stand mixer, add all the wet ingredients and mix until the yeast dissolves. Add all the dry ingredients and mix for 5 minutes on high speed. Add the butter and mix until incorporated.
- Let the dough rest for 60 minutes covered.
- Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and roll them into a ball and slightly flatten them into a doughnut-like shape.
- Using a small greased ramekin, press on the dough so the centre is hollow.
- Let the dough rest for another 40 minutes
- Prepare the tomato sauce by mixing the tomato sauce, salt, pepper and herbs together.
- You may have to use the ramekin to shape the dough again at this point. Evenly spread the sauce on the dough. Dust generously with Emmental cheese and place the chorizo on top.
- Brush on some egg on the edges of the dough.
- Let the dough rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Bake for 14 minutes at 190C until golden brown.
- Once cool, drizzle with hot honey.
