Bettys Proto Pups Corn Dogs Food

PRONTO PUPS AKA CORN DOGS

Steps:

• Combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, egg and sugar.
• Add milk until batter has a pancake type consistency (Too much milk, and batter wont stay on hot dogs, too little and your batter when fried will be cracked).
• Dry off hot dogs with paper towels, coat with flour, and skewer through the center of the corndog.
• Heat 2" deep oil to 370 degrees F.
• Dip skewered hot dogs into batter mix and coat evenly.
• Fry until golden brown about 2 1/2 minutes.
• Let cool and drain on a paper towel.
• With left over batter drop like dumplings into the oil until golden brown and drain.
• Serve with ketchup, mustard tarter sauce or a dressing of your choosing.

MINI CORN DOGS

Steps:

• Heat 2 inches of oil in a large heavy pot to 375 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Line a plate with paper towels.
• Insert wooden ice pop sticks or skewers securely into the hot dogs.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl.
• Whisk the eggs and buttermilk together in a large bowl. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk to combine. Pour the batter into a tall drinking glass.
• When the oil is hot, dip a hot dog into the batter to coat thoroughly, then add it to the oil. Repeat with as many as will fit comfortably in the pot. Fry, turning occasionally, until puffed and golden brown all over, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs, returning the oil to 375 degrees F between batches.
• Serve immediately with ketchup and mustard.

HOMEMADE CORN DOGS

Steps:

• In food processor or coffee grinder, grind garlic cloves with corn meal in small batches until well powdered.
• Sprinkle liberally over counter where dough is to be rolled.
• Grease two cookie sheets.
• Separate dough into four equal parts. Roll each section of bread dough out in thin strips, widening out to fit just over the ends of one brat to measure width.
• Roll one brat at a time, cutting dough and pinching sides together over backs of each brat.
• Roll again in corn meal on counter, adding more cornmeal sprinkle as needed to coat brats.
• Arrange double the width of each corn dog on greased cookie sheets. Cover with warm damp towels; place in warm place and let rise until doubled in bulk.
• Bake at 375 for 30 minutes; brush with butter. Serve.

ULTIMATE STADIUM CORN DOGS

Steps:

• Fill a large pot halfway with the oil. (You should have a least 4 inches of oil in the pot.) Bring the oil to 350 degrees F over medium to medium-high heat. Line a plate with a paper towel.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the corn muffin mix, milk, egg, pickled jalapeno juice and a pinch of salt and whisk until blended. If the batter is really thick, add a little more milk. (It should be the consistency of thick pancake batter.) Let rest for about 5 minutes.
• Skewer each hot dog on a chopstick or skewer. Place the flour on a plate or sheet tray. Working in batches of three, dredge the hot dogs in the flour so they are completely coated, making sure to shake off any excess flour. Dip the hot dogs in the batter and turn to completely coat. Gently slide them into the oil and fry, rotating occasionally so they evenly brown, until golden brown all over, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove to the lined plate. Serve with mustard for dipping.
