Type of Cheese: You can use a variety of cheeses for the filling, depending on your preference. Feta, mozzarella, cheddar, or a mixture of soft and hard cheeses work well.
Vinegar in the Dough: The addition of vinegar helps to tenderize the dough and gives the buns a slight tang, which complements the savory cheese filling.
Make-Ahead Tip: You can prepare the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator overnight. Just bring it to room temperature and allow it to rise before shaping the buns.
Additional Fillings: Feel free to add other ingredients to the filling, such as chopped olives, sun-dried tomatoes, or sautéed spinach, to enhance the flavor.
Storage:
Refrigeration: Store any leftover buns in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven at 160°C (320°F) for 5-10 minutes to refresh them.
Freezing: You can freeze the unbaked buns after shaping them. Place them on a tray to freeze until solid, then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag. When ready to bake, thaw the buns in the refrigerator and let them rise before baking as directed.
