PRETZEL CORN DOG RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
• Dust the cutting board with flour, and cut the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces.
• Roll each piece of dough out until it’s a 12-inch (30 cm) rope. It’s okay if the dough naturally shrinks.
• Take the rolled out dough and wrap it around a hot dog in a spiraling motion, leaving room on the ends.
• In a pot, combine the baking soda with the water and bring it to a boil.
• Cook each pretzel dog in the solution for 30 seconds each. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a baking tray.
• Brush each pretzel dog with the egg wash.
• Top the pretzels with your toppings of choice.
• For sea salt, sprinkle the salt on top. For jalapeño cheddar, top the pretzel with cheddar cheese, then follow with jalapeños. For garlic butter, combine the butter, garlic, and parsley, and brush on top. For pizza, top with mozzarella and follow with pepperoni.
• Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until it reaches a deep golden brown.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat the beer in a saucepan over low heat until it reaches 110 degrees F (45 degrees C).
• Combine the warm beer, sugar, and 2 teaspoons kosher salt in a bowl. Sprinkle the yeast on top, and let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam.
• Place the bread flour and butter in a bread machine. Add the yeast mixture, then select the dough cycle.
• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or grease with vegetable oil.
• Beat the egg yolk in a small bowl with 1 tablespoon water; set aside.
• Stir baking soda into 10 cups water in a large pot until dissolved, and bring to a boil.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly-oiled surface, and roll into a 10x20-inch rectangle.
• Cut the dough into 18 1-inch wide strips, then wrap each strip tightly around a hot dog in a spiral, pinching the edges to seal, and leaving the ends open. About half an inch of hot dog should peek out of each end of the dough wrapper.
• Drop 2 or 3 dough-wrapped hot dogs into the boiling water for 30 seconds.
• Arrange the boiled hot dogs on the prepared baking sheets. Brush each pretzel dog with the egg yolk mixture, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
