| The Chicago-Style Hot Dog... |
| ....at least from what I've gathered over the years. I've seen other variations of the recipe, but here it is: |
| The Chicago-Style Hot Dog
For 1 Serving: 1 Vienna Beef Hot Dog 1 poppy seed bun, well steamed Dash of Celery Salt 1 heaping teaspoon yellow mustard Finely Chopped Onions 4 thin wedges of red-ripe plum tomatoes 1 tablespoon sweet green relish Long slice of dill pickle Half a thick slice of cucumber 2 Hot sport peppers, optional (That's right - no ketchup!! You might get dirty looks in Chicago if you order ketchup on a hot dog!) Dress the hot dog with all of the ingredients in the order given above. Amounts should be to taste, but the general rule is, don't skimp on anything. It's tough to find Vienna hot dogs and poppy-seed buns in some places, so substitutions can be made but they are only substitutions. |
