The copious amount of garlic here is enough to ward off all evil, and the smell while baking is heaven. We love garlic and can take them raw. Please adjust to taste.

But the best part about this bun is the butter toasted bottom which is crispy and filled with aroma of butter and toasted sesame, a must to enjoy while freshly baked.
