Sainsbury's Brioche Hot Dog Rolls
What it is
These are soft, slightly sweet buns made with enriched dough, giving them a tender crumb and a golden crust. The brioche style means they contain eggs and butter, contributing to their rich flavor and delicate texture. They are shaped to perfectly hold a standard hot dog sausage. These rolls offer a more luxurious alternative to plain white buns.
