- Tangy and sweet ketchup
- Creamy mayonnaise
- 2 Korean chili peppers (Cheongyang peppers), finely minced
- Crisp iceberg lettuce
- 1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
● Prepare Fresh Vegetables: Wash the lettuce thoroughly and soak it in cold water for a bit before draining; this makes it extra crisp. Thinly slice the onion and soak it in cold water for about 10-15 minutes to mellow its sharp flavor. It’s good to change the water once or twice during this time. Tip: Mixing finely minced Korean chili peppers into mayonnaise creates a slightly spicy yet creamy sauce that further enhances the hot dog’s taste.
Step 2
● Make Creamy Scrambled Eggs: Whisk together 6 eggs and about 150cc of milk. Pour the egg mixture into a lightly heated pan over low heat. Stir gently with a spatula as it cooks to create very soft and moist scrambled eggs. It’s important to stir gently to prevent large clumps.
Step 3
● Prepare the Sausage: While not strictly necessary, making thin slits in the sausage can improve its appearance when cooked and allow the sauce to seep in, making it taste even better. Score the sausage according to your preference.
Step 4
● Warm the Buns: Lightly warm the hamburger buns in an oven or on a pan, as you prefer. Warm buns help the ingredients meld together, contributing to a more delicious hot dog.
Step 5
● Assemble the Hot Dog: Spread the prepared ingredients onto the inside of the warmed hamburger bun in layers. My recommended order is as follows: Bun → Lettuce → Mayonnaise → (Onion) → Scrambled Eggs → Sausage → Ketchup/Heinz Sauce. Feel free to alter the order or add ingredients to your liking.
Step 6
● Serve and Store: Hot dogs are best enjoyed immediately while warm. For any hot dogs you plan to eat later, wrap them tightly in aluminum foil or plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.
Step 7
● Sauce Options: You can use a variety of sauces according to your personal taste, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or mustard. Don’t hesitate to create your own unique sauce!
