I put 2 cups of fresh-milled flour into my stand mixer and add the salt and the water. I mix lightly until just combined and then let it sit 20 minutes.
After this time, I add the yeast, oil and then a little at a time, the remaining flour and let the mixer knead the dough 8 minutes.
I remove my beaters, and lightly flour my hands as I shape the dough into 12 buns. I lay them on parchment paper until they are double in size. (I don't do a double rise, that's why this is so easy).
