The Scandinavian Hot Dog
"You may think the hot dog is a purely American phenomenon, but in Scandinavia they have developed a completely different twist on the traditional dog as presented here in this recipe. To say that Scandinavians love hot dogs would be an understatement. Many European’s claim that Scandinavian hot dogs are some of the best in the world. It’s certainly true that the remoulade sauce gives their hot dogs a complex, sophisticated taste."

TO MAKE THE DANISH REMOULADE SAUCED
Step 5
Mince onion, parsley and capers. Be careful not to mince too much which will make them too watery.
Step 6
Place 1 cup of mayonnaise, 1 tbsp. of mustard, 1 tbsp. of fresh lemon juice, and 1 tsp. of Worcestershire sauce in a medium mixing bowl.
Step 7
Add the remaining ingredients and whisk everything together in the bowl.
Step 8
Cover and chill 1 hour. (Rémoulade sauce is better if left for a few hours to let the flavors meld. which will allow the flavors to blend and intensify.)
Step 9
Keep refrigerated. Will keep for several days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
