Sweet Sour Frankfurters Hot Dogs Food

HOMEMADE FRANKFURTERS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients, mix well and stuff into sheep casings (pork casings will work too, but will end up a little fatter frank).
• Smoke for 2-3 hours at 115 deg or until a rich orange color is reached (you can freeze them at this point, until you want to boil them).
• Then cook in water heated to 160-170 until franks float.
• Cooking time depends on thickness of the hot dog.
• You can simply just grill them as well.
• Again, the yield depends on how long and thick your links are.

SWEET-SOUR FRANKFURTERS (HOT DOGS)

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients except franks in large skillet. Simmer 2-3 minutes, stirring often. Add franks and simmer 10 minutes or until franks are hot and onions are soft, stirring occasionally.

HOT DOG FLOWERS

Steps:

• For the dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the bread flour, sugar, mustard powder, yeast and salt and whisk together. In a liquid measuring cup, add the water, yellow mustard and egg and whisk together. Add the wet ingredients and the coconut oil to the dry ingredients and stir to form a ball.
• Attach the dough hook to the mixer and knead for 7 to 10 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl and the hook once or twice. Form the dough into a ball and transfer to an oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let sit on the counter until the dough has puffed up by about half, about 1 hour. Turn the dough out onto a floured countertop and divide into 4 pieces (or 8, if using regular-sized hot dogs).
• For the flowers: Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Flatten each piece of dough and roll it all the way around a hot dog. Cut each dough-wrapped hot dog crosswise into 6 pieces and arrange in a flower design on the baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and allow to proof in a warmish place for 30 minutes (they should be a little jiggly).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl and brush each flower with the egg wash, then sprinkle with the mustard seeds. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes and eat warm with Chinese hot mustard.

NYC-STYLE HOT DOGS WITH STREET-CART ONIONS

Steps:

• First, make the onions. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a low-medium heat and cook the onions for 10-12 mins until golden and slightly charred in spots.
• Stir in the cinnamon, chilli powder, honey, mustard, ketchup, tomato purée, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, 2-3 tbsp water and a pinch of salt. Simmer for 1-2 mins until the onions are saucy, adding a splash more water if they seem dry. Taste and add a little more chilli powder, mustard or a pinch of sugar, if you like. Keep the onions warm if you're serving straightaway or cool and chill. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. Reheat over a low heat before serving, adding a splash of water to loosen as needed.
• Light a barbecue and wait until the coals are ashen, set a gas barbecue to medium or heat a griddle pan over a medium heat. Alternatively, bring a pan of water to a simmer. Cook the frankfurters for 15 mins on the barbecue or in a griddle pan until charred, or for 8 mins in a pan of simmering water. If using a barbecue, warm the buns over the coals, if you like. Spoon a little sauerkraut into each bun, top with a frankfurter and spoon over the onions. Drizzle over some extra mustard and ketchup.
