IRON CHEF HOT DOG WITH ONION AND PEPPER RELISH AND CRISPY RED ONIONS



Iron Chef Hot Dog with Onion and Pepper Relish and Crispy Red Onions image

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 small red onions, 1 finely sliced and 1 finely diced
1 small red pepper, seeded and finely diced
Kosher salt
1 to 2 teaspoons hot sauce
6 large dill pickles, finely diced
2 cups canola oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon hot paprika
2 small red onions, sliced into thin rounds
Kosher salt
8 all-beef hot dogs
1 tablespoon canola oil, if pan-frying
8 classic potato hot dog buns
Dijon mustard, for serving

Steps:

  • For the relish: Bring the red wine vinegar plus 1/4 cup water to a gentle simmer in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the sugar, mustard seeds and coriander seeds. Simmer until the liquid reduces to a syrup consistency and the seeds become tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.
  • Heat the oil in the same pan over medium heat until it smokes lightly. Add the onions and red pepper and cook over high heat until slightly tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt. Remove from the heat and add to the reduced vinegar mixture along with the hot sauce and pickles. Stir to blend, then transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 48 hours.
  • For the crispy onions: Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a medium pot.
  • Stir together the flour and paprika in a medium bowl, then add the onion slices and toss to coat. Test the oil by dropping in one onion slice. It should fall to the bottom, begin to bubble, rise to the top and fry gradually. Prepare a baking sheet fitted with a kitchen towel, and get a slotted spoon ready. Shake the excess flour off half of the onions and drop them in the oil. Gently swirl them with the spoon so they fry more evenly on all sides, until they are golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove them with the spoon and lay them out on the kitchen towel to cool. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat with the remaining onions.
  • For the hot dogs: Boil or pan-fry? Your choice. (See Cook's Note.) If you want to boil the dogs, place the dogs in a pan with enough simmering water to cover them and gently cook over medium-low heat until fully hot, 8 to 10 minutes. To pan-fry, add them to a little hot oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat until they are golden brown on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Toast the buns in the toaster or a hot (350 degree F) oven until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Spread a layer of mustard down the length of the dogs and place them in the buns. Top with hearty helpings of the relish and even layers of the onions all the way down the bun.

HOT DOGS WITH HOMEMADE TOMATO RELISH



Hot Dogs With Homemade Tomato Relish image

I haven't tried this recipe yet from Publix Supermarkets but it looks really good, especially for summertime picnics. Bratwurst can be substituted for the hot dogs, if desired.

Provided by TasteTester

Categories     Kid Friendly

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups grape tomatoes or 3 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup finely chopped red onion
6 garlic cloves, minced (or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)
2 tablespoons snipped fresh oregano or 2 tablespoons parsley
2 tablespoons honey mustard
1 tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon packed brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
8 hot dogs (smoked) or 8 cooked bratwursts (smoked)
1 cup red seedless grapes, halved or quartered
8 hot dog buns, split and toasted

Steps:

  • For the tomato relish, fold a 36x18-inch piece of heavy foil in half to make an 18x18-inch square. In a medium bowl combine 2 cups of the tomatoes, the onion, garlic, oregano, mustard, water, salt, brown sugar and pepper. Place mixture in center of the foil. Bring up two opposite edges of the foil; seal with a double fold. Fold the remaining edges to enclose the mixture, leaving space for steam to build.
  • For a charcoal grill, place the foil packet on a grill rack directly over medium coals. Grill for 10 minutes; turn packet. Grill about 10 minutes more or until onion is tender. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place foil packet on grill rack directly over heat. Cover and grill as above.).
  • Meanwhile, place hot dogs on grill rack around foil packet; grill for 5 to 7 minutes or until heated through, turning occasionally.
  • Carefully open rellish packet and stir remaining 1 cut tomato halves and the grapes into hot relish mixture. Place hot dogs in toasted buns; serve tomato relish with the hot dogs.

Tips:

  • Choose the right hot dogs: Look for hot dogs made with high-quality meat and avoid those with fillers or artificial ingredients.
  • Grill or pan-fry your hot dogs: This will give them a smoky flavor and a nice crispy texture.
  • Make your own onion and tomato relish: It's easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought relish.
  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the relish: This will give it the best flavor.
  • Add some chopped fresh herbs to the relish, such as basil, oregano, or parsley: This will give it an extra burst of flavor.
  • Serve your hot dogs with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include mustard, ketchup, relish, onions, and sauerkraut.

Conclusion:

These hot dogs with onion and tomato relish are the perfect summer meal. They're easy to make, delicious, and can be customized to your liking. So fire up the grill and enjoy a classic American meal with your friends and family.
