Categories     Meat

Time 40m

Yield 12 pieces, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

0.5 (11 ounce) box frozen puff pastry, thawed but cold (1 sheet)
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 1/2 yellow onions, finely sliced on a mandoline
3/8 teaspoon granulated sugar
kosher salt
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 hot dogs, each cut into thirds
1 egg, beaten with a splash of water
poppy seed
fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Thaw the puff pastry in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F Heat the canola oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. When it shimmers, add the onions, sugar, and salt. Sauté, stirring often, until the onions are golden and soft, 8-10 minutes. While they are cooking, add 1 tablespoon of water whenever the bottom of the pot gets brown. When they are ready, drain any extra oil or liquid and transfer the onions to a bowl. Stir in mustard.
  • Cut the puff pastry in 1 1/2-inch strips (a pizza wheel is excellent for this - use a ruler to keep the lines straight), then cut each strip in half the short way. Spread some of the onion-mustard mixture on each strip, and roll each strip around 1 piece of hot dog. Place seam-side-down on a rimmed baking sheet, leaving space for the pastry to puff. Repeat with the remaining pastry, onion mixture, and hot dogs.
  • Use a pastry brush to lightly brush each piece with egg wash. Sprinkle with poppy seeds and a touch of fleur de sel. Bake until puffed, golden, and crisp, 22 to 25 minutes. Serve right out of the oven.

SAUCISSON EN CROUTE

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon oil
1 (1-pound) bag sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
2 onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 pound low-fat turkey kielbasa
1 (10-ounce) can refrigerated pizza dough
1 cup honey mustard

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Add the sauerkraut, onions, caraway seeds and a 1/2 cup of water; cook, covered, until the liquid evaporates and the sauerkraut and onions are very tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut the kielbasa into 2 (8-inch) lengths, then cut the pizza dough in 1/2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each 1/2 of dough into a rectangle about 2 inches longer than the kielbasa and wide enough to wrap around it. Spoon 1/2 of the sauerkraut mixture down the center of each piece of dough, then place a kielbasa half on the sauerkraut. Fold up the dough to enclose the kielbasa completely, pinching the edges to seal. Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Cut into slices; serve warm or at room temperature, with honey mustard on the side.

SAUCISSON EN CROUTE



Saucisson en Croute image

The French term "en croute" refers to food that's been wrapped in pastry and baked in the oven. Here, a flavorful garlic sausage serves as the filling -- think of the end result as pigs in a blanket, only tastier and prettier, thanks to a tool called a lattice cutter.

Yield Makes 1

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 sheet puff pastry, preferably all-butter, thawed if frozen
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 fully cooked garlic sausage, about 2 inches in diameter and 8 to 9 inches long, casing removed
Dijon mustard, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Roll out pastry to a 14-by-12-inch rectangle, 1/8 inch thick. Using a pizza wheel or sharp knife, cut into one 12-by-9-inch rectangle and one 12-by-4-inch rectangle. (Reserve remaining dough, if any, for another use.)
  • Apply a lattice roller cutter lengthwise along the smaller rectangle, rolling firmly to cut all the way through the dough. Brush the larger rectangle with egg wash. Stretch the smaller rectangle over the larger rectangle, opening the cuts to create the lattice pattern. Using a pizza wheel, trim overhanging edges. Transfer to a baking sheet (if dough becomes too soft, freeze 15 minutes).
  • Flip the layered dough pieces so the lattice is on the underside. Brush one short end of the dough with egg wash. Place sausage at the other short end of the dough and roll tightly. Pinch ends to seal. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet, seam-side down, and brush lattice with egg wash once more. Using the tip of a knife, cut a few steam vents in lattice.
  • Bake until pastry is puffed and deep golden brown, about 40 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • For a crispy puff pastry, use cold butter and handle the dough as little as possible.
  • To make the vol-au-vents ahead of time, bake them and let them cool completely. Then, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • When you're ready to serve, reheat the vol-au-vents in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes, or until they're warmed through.
  • If you don't have any puff pastry on hand, you can use crescent roll dough instead. Just cut each sheet of dough into 4 equal squares.
  • Feel free to get creative with your fillings. You can use any type of meat, cheese, or vegetables that you like.

Conclusion:

Hot dog vol-au-vents are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up leftover hot dogs. So next time you're looking for a fun and unique snack, give these hot dog vol-au-vents a try!
