National Corn Dog Day takes place in the USA on March 18th.
Corn dogs are a real classic
snack
.
It's not entirely certain who invented the corn dog, but one thing is clear: it doesn't get more American than this.
The casing of the sausages in the dough consists mainly of
corn flour
, which was considered a staple food of the indigenous population.
Hot dogs are an adaptation of the German
sausage
in a bun and were brought to the USA by immigrants.
The combination of these ingredients created a product that dominated a large part of the snack market, at
folk festivals and sporting events
, in the 20th century.
Today, the corn dog is considered an icon of
American fast food
.
So cook our recipe and let's celebrate National Corn Dog Day in the USA.
That's how it's done:
You only need a few ingredients:
Dough:
100 g wheat flour
180g corn flour
1 tsp (5g) baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp (10 g) honey
1 egg
180 ml buttermilk
Aside from that:
400 g hot dog sausages (or Vienna sausages)
1 liter frying oil
Mustard and ketchup
The preparation is simple:
Cut the sausages into thirds and set aside.
For the dough
: Mix the wheat flour, corn flour, baking powder, salt, honey, egg and buttermilk with the beaters of a hand mixer to form a homogeneous dough.
Let it soak for 10 minutes.
Heat frying oil in a deep pot.
Turn the sausages in the dough and fry them in the hot fat until golden brown (tip: the dough will stick even better if you turn the sausages in a little flour beforehand).
Drain on kitchen paper.
Serve hot with ketchup and mustard.
Clean up!
These mini corn dogs taste great with ketchup and mustard.
