Ingredients

4 pieces Hot Dog Sausages
4 pieces Hot Dog Buns
2 pieces Tomatoes
1 piece Yellow Onion
4 pieces Pickled Gherkins
8 pieces Pickled Jalapeño Rings
2 tbsp Medium-hot Mustard

Preparation

1
Prepare a large pot with a steamer insert. Steam the hot dog sausages for about 5 minutes until hot. Alternatively, the sausages can be grilled until golden brown on all sides.
2
Meanwhile, finely dice the onion, slice the tomatoes, and quarter the gherkins lengthwise.
3
Once the sausages are ready, place them in the hot dog buns. Slide the tomato slices and gherkin quarters alongside the sausage into the bun.
4
Evenly distribute the diced onions and jalapeño rings over them. Add some pickle relish if desired.
5
Finally, add a generous strip of mustard over the hot dog and serve immediately.

Tip

For a particularly authentic experience, you can briefly steam the buns with the sausages or toast them on the grill.
