Ingredients
- 4 (180 grams) hot dogs (natural casing beef frankfurters, I like Boar's Head brand)
- 4 (5 ounces) bread buns (4 hot dog buns (with poppyseeds if you can find them)
- 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 to 4 teaspoons sweet pickle relish (bright green type if you can find it!)
- 1 dill pickle (cold-pack kosher dill pickles, quartered lengthwise)
- 1 small tomato, sliced into julienne strips
- 4 to 8 pickled bell peppers (sport bell peppers or 4 -8 tiny hot peppers, Kroger sells these)
- Dusseldorf-style brown mustard (with horseradish, to taste, may use yellow mustard)
- Celery seed
- Poppy seed (omit if using seeded buns)
- Beer, for simmering (standard golden lager preferred; not authentic) (optional)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Simmer frankfurters in beer or water for approximately 10 minutes.
-
Step 2: Warm buns in microwave, until slightly warm and soft.
-
Step 3: To assemble hot dogs, place frank in each bun.
-
Step 4: Add mustard to taste; top with dill spear, relish, onion, tomato, and 1-2 sport peppers (Jalapenos"might" be a reasonable substitute if you are desperate to find the sport peppers, but the taste won't be quite the same).
-
Step 5: Sprinkle with celery seed and poppy seeds.
