French-dog - analogue of hot dog

This simple dish is a European response to the famous American analogue - "hot dog". But if the French-dog is considered (in particular by the same gourmets-Frenchmen) a dish more refined and delicate than a hot dog, then in appearance and method of preparation it is not much different from its state colleague. Shall we try to cook it?

French jacket. The recipe is basic

What is necessary for this food from the "fast food" series? First of all (and this is one of the differences), buns for French-dogs. It can be special bakery products, but at home, French roll (long) is perfect, it is also called baguette, cut into pieces, in accordance with the size of sausages. So:

• Roll.
• 4 sausages.
• Cucumber is salted.
• The onion head is red.
• A tomato.
• A little mayonnaise "Provansal", a little bit of ketchup.
• A bit of mustard.

All this is good - for 4 servings.

Preparation

1. Sausages are printed and released from the shell (if it is not natural).
2. Boil or grill on the grill (very convenient if you are in natural conditions, for example, at a picnic).
3. Roll baguette we cut portionwise and also warm up on the grill (or in the microwave, if in the kitchen).
4. Vegetables cut into smaller cubes.
5. From the heated bun we take the middle.
6. In the resulting hole dripping mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, rammed prepared vegetables (but without fanaticism - there will have to be and sausage fit).
7. We place the sausage in the hole, and along the edges we smear with ketchup in addition, but not too much.
8. Warm up the entire structure on the grill grill (or microwave oven, or in the oven) for a few minutes, so that the loaf gets the finest crunch.
9. French-dog is ready for use (as a rule, it is eaten "with heat and heat", as it is less delicious in a refrigerated form). As you can see, it is easier to prepare it.

French-dog - the best solution

Such a simple recipe is the best solution for any picnic in nature, when you do not want to, for example, "bother" with a shish kebab, plov, or a soup, and you just wanted to have a tasty snack. In addition, on the grill or on an open fire, it turns out even more delicious, with a haze. The main thing here: to pay close attention to the choice of the main ingredient - sausages. They should be natural to the maximum (preferably in the intestinal membrane), without any additives such as soy and preservatives, and then your French food will be excellent - just lick your fingers.

It will also be good to take sausages from lamb or beef. Only it should be noted that lamb, for example, will give a French-dog a specific characteristic flavor, which not everyone will like. You can take turkeys or chicken - you will get an unusual taste of the bird.

And at home, this French jacket can become one of the "on duty" dishes. For example, when you want a quick snack, or when the guests are already on the doorstep, and a more serious dish is just starting to cook. So this meal is a worthy alternative to the hot dog itself, and other fast food.

Difference from hotdog

So, the main difference between the French and American fast food is that it is not a longitudinal incision of the roll, but a crumb on one side. Consequently, such food is more convenient for street use on the go. In addition, Americans traditionally prefer to fill the "dog" with ketchup from the heart. Europeans are more gallant in approaching this issue, moderately using mayonnaise, ketchup and mustard, literally by drop of each ingredient to soften the base of the dish - buns.

Cooking method

Using this method of cooking, the sausage is sometimes changed to another product, leaving all the remaining ingredients the same. So, some prefer to use a crab or fish rod - also an option worthy of attention. And instead of sausages you can put a bar of hard cheese: it is slightly melted inside the loaf from the temperature effect, for example, on the grill. Also yummy it turns out.

Equipment

If you want to make a French jacket, equipment will be needed in any case. In principle, nothing special preparation of such a snack does not require. If there is a pin grill in your kitchen, then it will be very handy. In nature, on an open fire, the grill for grilling, which is with a clamp, is useful. In the conditions of street fast food, in small snack bars, the same clamping or roller electric grill is used. But no less delicious and mouth-watering French "bulldogs" can be cooked in an ordinary oven or microwave oven - there would be a desire and the corresponding ingredients.

For what they love this yast

By the way, in the EU countries such dish with various variations of fillings became one of the leaders in sales in street food. And it is not surprising: French jacket is ideally created to eat it in street or natural conditions. The biscuit is closed on all sides except one. All the sauces and stuffing are inside, so the chance of getting dirty or dabble is minimized. In addition, the dish has an excellent taste and crispy crust.
