Ingredients:
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons white vinegar |
1 teaspoon yellow mustard |
1 teaspoon poppy seeds |
1 teaspoon honey |
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper |
2 hot dog buns |
3 slices bacon |
3 hot dogs |
1 tablespoon unsalted butter |
sliced tomatoes, red onion and cucumber, lettuce leaves, dill pickle slices and pickled peppers, for topping |
celery salt, for sprinkling |
Directions:
1. Make the dressing: Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, poppy seeds, honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. 2. Prepare the sandwiches: Preheat the broiler. Tear the hot dog buns in half lengthwise at the seam, then cut each side in half crosswise to make 8 pieces; flatten slightly with your hand. Arrange the bun pieces on a baking sheet and broil until golden, about 2 minutes per side. 3. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, turning, until crisp, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels, then break each piece in half. 4. Split each hot dog lengthwise, about three-quarters of the way through, and open like a book. Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the hot dogs cut-side down in the skillet; cook until browned and heated through, about 2 minutes per side. Cut each hot dog in half crosswise. 5. Sprinkle the tomatoes with celery salt. For each sandwich, spread 1 bun piece with some of the dressing and top with a piece of bacon, tomato, red onion, cucumber, lettuce and a hot dog; drizzle with more dressing and top with another bun piece. Repeat to make 2 more layers, ending with a bun piece. Secure the sandwich with a long skewer; top with a dill pickle slice and a pickled pepper. 6. Photograph by Kang Kim |
