How to Make Homemade Sausage Hot Dogs: The Ingredients!
I love hot dog buns from bakeries, but when I want to enjoy them to my heart’s content, making them at home is the best! The happiness of eating them with an Americano is truly supreme!!! Let’s make today’s dish: Homemade Hot Dogs.
Key Ingredients- Soft hot dog buns (buttery ones recommended)
- Long sausages (choose according to your preference)
- Flavorful sauerkraut (German pickled cabbage)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
For a delicious sausage hot dog, the essential ingredients are the hot dog bun and the sausage. Make sure to prepare these two items.
Step 2
There are many varieties of hot dog buns available. I prefer a soft texture that melts in your mouth, so I purchased buns that contain butter. The type of bun you choose can significantly impact the overall flavor of your hot dog, so select one that suits your taste.
Step 3
Sauerkraut, also known as German pickled cabbage, adds a delightful tanginess and crisp texture that cuts through the richness of the sausage, enhancing the overall flavor. It’s a wonderful accompaniment not just for hot dogs but also for German pork knuckle (Haxen). Having some on hand allows for versatile use in various dishes.
Step 4
Now, let’s prepare the star ingredient: the sausage! For a sausage hot dog, a long sausage is perfect. Choose your preferred type and brand, then pan-fry it until golden brown and slightly browned. This step helps to seal in the juices, making the sausage even more delicious.
Step 5
Warm your prepared hot dog buns slightly in an air fryer or oven until they are warm and slightly toasty. Slice the warmed bun open. Spread a generous layer of sauerkraut inside the bun, place the pan-fried sausage on top, and finish with a drizzle of sweet ketchup and piquant mustard sauce to your liking. Your very own special homemade sausage hot dog is now complete! Adding some crispy pickles on the side will make it even more enjoyable.
