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.

I made these with whole wheat puff pastry and turkey hot dogs to make them a bit healthier.
