3 ACTS:
1st Act – A declaration through emulation.

3rd Act – A conclusion.
The Hot Dog – a grilled or steamed sausage, placed in a partially sliced bun. Typical condiments that accommodate the sausage often include ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise – sometimes cheese sauce. Popular garnishes are fried onions, pickles (gherkins), jalapenos, coleslaw, sauerkraut, grated cheese and olives. Being popularised in America, the Hot Dog was originally from the word “frankfurter” and comes from Frankfurt. Where itself was introduced in the 13th century at the coronation of Maximillian II, Holy Roman Emperor as a sausage mixture of pork and beef. The Hot dog would then be brought to the USA and introduced as working class street food sold on stands or carts.

This dog above shows a lightly fried bun, a low laying dog, additional chilli and sprinkled with fresh onion and cheese. The bun isn’t at capacity, leading it to be digestible. However, the dog below is a neatly arranged bun. Full to the brim with ingredients. Although, similarly containing fresh onion, this dog holds a long pickle alongside the sausage and drenched in mustard. Out of the two I prefer the latter. Both however are treats for the senses. I would like to one day create the most perfect Hot Dog imaginable.

My perfect Hot Dog recipe would be – A toasted bun, fried onions, one large gherkin, mild grated cheese, a small amount of tomato ketchup and mustard.
