USA: Although the Germans have been putting their sausages in bread long before the Americans, the buns used for American hot dogs came to be when Mr. Charles Feltman invented an elongated bun on Coney Island in 1871. I love this recipe; it produces soft, squishy buns in under an hour. It’s a great dough, easy to knead by hand, so good for beginning bakers!
