Ingredients:
- 4 Franconian Käsekrainer Sausages (filled with Swiss Emmental cheese)
- 4 artisan hot dog buns
- 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup of caramelised onions
- 1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese
- Mustard, preferably whole grain, to taste
- Optional toppings: sauerkraut, crispy onions, or sweet pickle relish
Method:
- Grill the Käsekrainer: Begin by setting your grill to a medium heat to ensure even cooking without burning the sausages. Place the Franconian Käsekrainer Sausages on the grill, carefully turning them every couple of minutes to achieve an even char on all sides. This process, taking about 6-8 minutes, is crucial for heating the sausages thoroughly while achieving that desirable slight char on the exterior. Monitoring the internal temperature is key; aiming for 75°C guarantees that the sausages are cooked to perfection, with the Swiss Emmental cheese inside beautifully melted, creating a harmonious blend of Flavors and textures.
- Prepare the Buns: Butter the insides of your buns. Toast them on the grill for 1-2 minutes for a crispy exterior. The warm, crispy buns will beautifully contrast with the juicy Käsekrainer.
- Assemble the Käsekrainer Hot Dogs: Once your Käsekrainer are grilled to perfection and the buns are toasted, it’s time to assemble your hot dogs. Carefully place a grilled Käsekrainer in each bun, ensuring it sits snugly. Add a layer of caramelised onions for a touch of sweetness, then sprinkle over some grated cheddar cheese, which will gently melt from the heat of the sausage and bun, enveloping the Käsekrainer in a creamy, cheesy delight. A generous dollop of whole grain mustard adds a tangy kick that cuts through the richness, while optional toppings like sauerkraut, crispy onions, or sweet pickle relish introduce additional layers of flavour and texture, making each bite a culinary adventure.
- Serve: Serve your Käsekrainer Hot Dogs hot with your favourite sides. The combination of rich, cheesy Käsekrainer, crisp buns, and a mix of sweet, tangy, and optional flavours makes a visually appealing, flavourful dish suitable for any event. These hot dogs showcase Franconian quality and taste, guaranteeing satisfaction and impressing guests with every bite.
