Cleochatra's Revoloopsie Rolls (home-made hamburger buns and more)

[weasel!]

If your hard-boiled eggs are too dry, then they're boiling for too long.

Has anyone tried grilled cheese? I don't see how these delicate things could possibly hold up to being grilled long enough or hot enough to melt the cheese. With some innovation, I'm sure someone can come up with something delicious that resembles grilled cheese, though.

[cleochatra]

I'm giving her a shot now, weasel! I'll let you know how it turns out.

I'm having it with a soup I made through a collossal screw up of a different recipe a friend game me locally. It's good stuff.

[cleochatra]

Thank you for the tips, shadow! I think I'm going to try that recipe! You are the best!!! It also makes me really glad that this is your favorite RR recipe so far. And it was by pure accident. I never have that kind of luck in anything else, though. LOL

[Lildudesmommy]

Looks so good! I am trying take 2 tonight as well!

[haystar]

Oh yeah I remember a couple ideas I want to try:

tacos and fajitas and quesadillas!

[cleochatra]

I took pictures, and the grilled cheese sammiches cooked up really well!

I buttered the rolls and cooked them on the stove. Cut them in half and am not dipping it into my messed-up-soup. It rocks!

[Briar]

I finally mastered them myself tonight. I will be addicted!

BTW, hubby tried my sammich and said it tasted a little eggy than he expected. Keep that in mind!

I think they're good!

[haystar]

No egg flavor detected from me, so I don't care what ANYONE else says! More buns for me!!! *Greeeeeedy*

[Cutie]

a few more tips for "bun newbies":

if you don't care for the smell/taste of pam cooking spray (which is what you use for muffin top pans)...try switching to butter flavored crisco spray. i switched a couple months ago and have never regretted it! smells & tastes way yummier than Pam, imo.

to keep whipped whites perfectly peaked, you simply can NOT have your bowl and mixing blades cold enough!!! after i'm done making a batch, i wash the bowl and blades right away and pop 'em in the freezer. that way, when it's time to make a new batch a couple days later, they are absolutely FREEZING COLD!!

also, a stainless steel mixing bowl will retain coldness WAY more than a plastic bowl...so if you've been using plastic, you may find better success with switching to stainless steel.

just a couple pennies i thought i'd toss out this evening...happy baking everyone!!

[Lickrish]

so jealous of all you who have gotten these to work. I'm too afraid to waste the ingredients again.

[silversunfire]

OK THAT'S IT! I'm going to try to make these on Saturday when I am off!!

[cleochatra]

Lickrish-- You didn't eat the last batch? I have to admit, I tried something different this time and mine came out flatter than Carson Daly's ratings.

I used them for:

french toast
grilled cheese sammiches
mini pizza crusts
a gyro

They still have a lot of good in them, even if they're minus the height. Even with the height, they're not that tall; their texture is just different.

Don't be afraid to eat the mistakes and try again!

[cleochatra]

silversunfire-- I was surprised at how much I loved the 'french toast' made with these. Hazelnut Davinci's tastes like maple syrup. I want to try the raspberry now... Add bacon and butter and ooh la la!

[cleochatra]

Pennies? You so cheap!

By the way your recipe rocks. I have made revolution rolls countless times and these are the absolute best. Just a hint for everyone the last time I made them I layered them with parchment paper and covered them loosely with saran wrap and placed in the fridge. They stayed dry like when taken out of the oven, and do not stick to the parchment paper.

We have a Cash & Carry here that sells to restaurants in western WA, but the general public can also shop there...I bought a box of the papers that you find at the donut counter in grocery stores and placed a square between each roll. They work great and there are tons of them in one box and they're pretty cheap.

Gotta make more of those rolls tonight, after a dinner of what we're now calling my Siesta Turkey Loaf.

(ground chicken mixed with bread crumbs from two slices of homemade LC bread (16 slices per loaf at 19 carbs per loaf), an egg white, chopped onion and fahita seasoning from Penzy spices. (google penzy's) ground turkey works well, too!

Cleochatra~ I hope you and the kiddies are feeling better soon!

epix--start with all cold ingredients, and if you have trouble separating the eggs ,drop the egg from the shell into your hand while holding it over the bowl, letting the egg whites slide between your open fingers into the bowl. It's a little messy but the yolks won't break and it's quicker!

You might also consider using a copper bowl if you happen to have one, as the whites will beat up higher, but a regular metal or glass bowl will work fine. As suggested, put everything in the fridge for about 30 minutes before beating, and you can even beat them up without the addition of the cream of tartar, adding it after the whites are very foamy or near stiff. I use less than 1/8 tsp, just using a tiny bit on the tip of a sharp knife blade.

It's best to add the beaten whites to the yolk and make several smaller additions, mixing between each addition.

When you fold the whites into yolk mixture, do it very slowly, using a downward motion to the bottom of the bowl with the edge of the bowl-scraper or large rubber spatula, then sort of flipping the wrist to come back up with the same edge you went down with, if that makes any sense. Once you come back up, actually remove the scraper and start the action over.

The whole point is to mix the two parts together without breaking the air bubbles that were beaten into the whites, and you want to do it quickly and get the rolls into the oven as the longer they sit the more the egg whites will break down and turn back into liquid.

OK....the verdict is in........

I just finished dinner. I was going to do an egg sammie, but I've been yearning for something "carby". So I made a full on breakfast. I made a sausage and egg scramble with cheese, and on the side I warmed up an oopsie and topped it with Howard's SF syrup and butter...........

Oh man, I do NOT miss the big breakfast now! I feel so yummily full- but in a good way lol.

Eaten this way, it's just like a pancake! Even the texture is just right.

I made a "McGriddle" with it for tomorrow morning and took a bite to try it out and it was really good. I wouldn't use this on everything, but it's definitely a worthy sub for a LOT of things I'm missing....especially when I really want something and need bread for it, like a BLT or something.

On the grilled cheese sandwich..I did mine in the microwave..It was quick and easy and the cheese melted.

One of my very favorite sandwiches..Was a Monte Cristo Tuna Melt..

2 Oopsie rolls
Tuna salad
slice of cheese
Egg/milk combo like for french toast

Mix egg/milk combo and dip one side of an oopsie roll and place egg side down in small skillet with some butter..And then layer a piece of cheese, some tuna salad and then
plop another oopsie on top (the outside that has been dunked in the egg/milk combo).

Fry one side until brownish..slowly..Then flip the sandwich and brown again. If the cheese isn't melted, you can put in the microwave for 10 seconds or so.

Hey, guys..How about George Foreman meeting Oopsies?? Has anyone "Georged" their oopsies yet?
