The San Francisco Icon You Can’t Find Anywhere Else

From Kitchen in the Shire.

Recreating these California Dutch Crunch Sandwich Rolls was a dream project. I wasn’t chasing a generic tiger bread look … I wanted that thin, crackled, San Fransisco Bay Area deli-style shell with a soft roll underneath that can actually handle real sandwich fillings. After a pile of tests, wrong turns, and more topping experiments than I care to admit, this batch finally landed where I wanted it.
In this video, I’m walking you through the full process for making Dutch Crunch Sandwich rolls from scratch … the dough, the topping, the proofing, and the bake that gives you that crisp, fine crackled top. If you’ve ever wanted to make a proper sandwich roll with some real personality, this one is absolutely worth the trouble. I also give you a complete demonstration and review of my new Joydeem Electric Dough Maker. An absolute game changer for those of us who make bread all of the time. You really should have a scale for this one. It makes it so much easier due to the precise measurements needed to achieve the right texture in this moist, fluffy crumb.
