What is the best way to heat bread rolls in the Microwave without them going all tough and horrible.I wrapped a paper towel around it but it isn't very nice to eat.Is there any device you can buy for heating up bread rolls want to make hotdogs with nice buns.Thanks.

Put a glassful of water in the microwave at the same time as you heat up the buns - can't say I've ever had the problem of the buns going tough though I have an auto-reheat function on my microwave that is quite a low power setting

Personally I'd just put them in a real oven for 5-10 mins or so, doesn't take long at all there, so why bother with a microwave.

Buns used as hotdogs are best steamed.If you don't have a steamer; bring a large pot, with a little water to the boil; and place buns (already slit/cut) in a sieve! Throw on the lid.In less than 50sec to 1 min; beautiful pipping hot soft buns.By cutting them first reduces unnecessary handling afterwards, thus crushing the structure of the bread.
Yum! I'll have all sauces plus double cheese, please.

Second tip: I have made hotdogs, cold so to speak. Cut bun; add sauces / cheese / onion etc.Add frankfurter. Wrap securely in Baking Paper, twisting the ends to resemble lolly wrappers. Zap in microwave. 1min-1min 30sec mins, depending on wattage/strength of microwave.Works. But they need to rest for a little, before unwrapping.

We use a bench oven and it is marvellous.Cook most things in it including roast dinners and baking.So much better than a microwave.

Me too, wouldn't be without my little bench top oven! Quick and easy for heating rolls, never go tough. Actually I do mine straight out of the freezer! Even cook casseroles in mine too.
