DELICIOUS CORN DOGS



Delicious Corn Dogs image

I use "Schneider's Juicy Jumbo" hot dogs for these, as they are quite large and hold well under the corn meal coating, I am not certain if they sell this brand in the states, if not just make certain that the hot dogs are a larger size. These are really good!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 17m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1 pinch white pepper
10 large hot dogs
wooden skewer
oil (for frying, not olive oil)

Steps:

  • Mix the first 10 ingredients in a bowl (if the batter is extremely thick then add in a litle more milk use just enough to hold the batter onto the hotdog do not add in too much milk or the batter will not hold on).
  • Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish (I find that an 11 x 7-inch baking pan works well for this).
  • Push the wooden skewers into the hot dogs.
  • Roll/coat the hot dogs well with the cornmeal mixture.
  • Heat oil to 375 degrees F.
  • Deep-fry the corn dogs for about 2 minutes until golden brown (do not over fry as the corn dogs will have a burnt taste, 2 minutes should be enough time).
  • Drain on paper towels.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 8 corn dogs

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 gallon peanut oil
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons (approximately 1 large) jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely minced
1 (8.5-ounce) can cream-style corn
1/3 cup finely grated onion
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons cornstarch, for dredging
8 beef hot dogs

Steps:

  • Special equipment: 8 sets chopsticks, not separated
  • Pour oil into a deep fryer or large heavy pot and heat to 375 degrees F. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cayenne pepper. In a separate bowl, combine the jalapeno, corn, onion, and buttermilk. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients all at once, and stir only enough times to bring the batter together; there should be lumps. Set batter aside and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Scatter the cornstarch into a dry pie pan. Roll each hot dog in the cornstarch and tap well to remove any excess.
  • Transfer enough batter to almost fill a large drinking glass. Refill the glass as needed. Place each hot dog on chopsticks, and quickly dip in and out of the batter. Immediately and carefully place each hot dog into the oil, and cook until coating is golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. With tongs, remove to cooling rack, and allow to drain for 3 to 5 minutes.

OVEN BAKED CORN DOGS



Oven Baked Corn Dogs image

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 24m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 boxes corn muffin mix, 8 1/2 ounces each (recommended: Jiffy brand)
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 tablespoon chili powder, eyeball it in your palm
2 teaspoons cumin, eyeball it
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper sauce (recommended: Tabasco or Frank's Red Hot
2 scallions, finely chopped
8 jumbo pork or beef franks
Sweet Relish Slaw Salad, recipe follows
1 bag reduced fat potato chips (recommended: Cape Cod brand or Terra brand Garlic and Onion flavor Yukon chips)
1 cup sweet pickle relish
1/4 cup cider vinegar, eyeball it
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, eyeball it
2 large cloves garlic, crushed
2 bay leaves, dried
3 whole cloves
1 pound shredded cabbage salad (slaw salad mix with carrots and red cabbage, available in produce department marked "Cole Slaw Mix" in 1 pound packages)
Salt and pepper
4 scallions, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a shallow dish, combine muffin mix with flour, then stir in eggs, milk and melted butter. Season the mix with chili powder, cumin, cayenne and scallions. The batter will be a thick, sticky biscuit dough. Place a hot dog in the bowl of batter and swoosh it around to coat it. Remove coated dog to a nonstick cookie sheet and use your fingers to spread batter on any exposed dog spots. Don't coat it too thick, just shy of 1/2-inch should do the trick. If it's too thick it will just slide off the dog while it's baking, leaving the dog exposed. If that happens don't sweat it, they will still taste great. Repeat until all 8 are coated. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until evenly deep brown all over.
  • Serve the oven baked corn dogs with your favorite hot dog condiments. Serve with Sweet Relish Slaw Salad and with some baked or reduced-fat chips alongside the dogs.
  • In the bottom of a medium, shallow bowl combine relish, vinegar, oil, garlic, bay and cloves. Let stand 5 minutes then fish out the garlic, bay and cloves. Add cabbage salad and toss, let stand 10 to 20 minutes in the refrigerator. Season salad with salt and pepper, toss in the scallions then serve.

CORN DOGS



Corn Dogs image

When executive editor John Willoughby caught sight of these freshly fried corn dogs, he exclaimed, "Just like the Iowa State Fair!" When he bit into one, he acknowledged that it was even better. Grilling the hot dogs first lends them a deeper, smokier flavor, and the buttermilk-cornmeal coating fries up to a thick, fluffy shell-delicious with mustard or ketchup and a frosty root beer on the side.

Korean Corn Dogs Recipe by Tasty image

These cheesy, beefy, sweet, and savory corn dogs probably have you drooling already. Beef hot dogs and mozzarella sticks are dredged in a slightly sweet batter, coated in crunchy toppings, deep-fried to perfection, then drizzled with ketchup and mustard.

Provided by Tikeyah Whittle

Categories     Lunch

Time 30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

canola oil, for frying
kosher salt, for boiling
1 ½ lb russet potato, peeled and cut into 1/4 in (6mm)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups all purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup whole milk, plus 3 tablespoons
1 large egg, beaten
6 all-beef hot dogs, halved crosswise
2 shredded low moisture mozzarella cheeses, 8 ounce (225 g) blocks
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 cups korean rice puffs
¼ cup granulated sugar, for sprinkling
yellow mustard
12 wooden skewers

Steps:

  • Fill a large stock pot fitted with a deep-fry thermometer with canola oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Reduce the heat to medium to maintain the temperature. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and place it nearby.
  • Prepare the potatoes: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and blanch for 2 minutes, then drain and transfer to a medium bowl. Let cool to room temperature, 15-20 minutes. Once cooled, sprinkle the flour over the potatoes and toss until well coated, shaking off and discarding any excess.
  • Make the batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, whisk together 1 cup of milk and the egg until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until combined. The batter should be fairly thick; if it is too thick to whisk, add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time. Transfer the batter to a pint glass or another tall, narrow container. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Thread each hot dog half onto the pointy end of a skewer, cut-side up, pushing down to about 2 inches below the tip. Thread the mozzarella rectangles onto the skewers above the hot dogs so they are flush with the cut ends of the hot dogs and the tips of the skewers.
  • Add the panko, floured potatoes, and rice puffs to individual plates or small trays.
  • Working one at a time, dip a cheese and hot dog skewer into the cup with the batter, coating completely. Gently shake off any excess batter.
  • For the original dogs: Roll a battered dog in the panko bread crumbs until well coated, using your fingers to pack on the bread crumbs as needed.
  • For the potato dogs: Roll a battered dog in the floured potatoes, using your hands to pack on the potatoes to ensure they stick. Immediately roll the potato-coated dog in the panko bread crumbs until completely coated.
  • For the crispy rice dogs: Roll a battered dog in rice puffs until completely coated, using your fingers to pack on the puffs as needed.
  • Place the coated dogs in the hot oil, 2-3 at a time, and fry for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy, using tongs to turn as needed. Transfer to the wire rack and sprinkle all over with sugar (use tongs when turning; the sticks will be very hot). Repeat with the remaining corn dogs to make 4 of each kind.
  • To serve, drizzle ketchup and mustard over the corn dogs.
  • Enjoy!

BAKED CORN DOGS



Baked Corn Dogs image

This recipe for baked corn dogs uses chicken sausage, a new and improved take on a state-fair snack. Serve with Speedy "Baked" Beans and Tangy Coleslaw.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for dusting sausages
2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
Coarse salt and ground pepper
2/3 cup milk
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 precooked smoked chicken sausages (13 ounces total)
Ketchup and mustard, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Make a well in center; add milk, eggs, and oil. Mix just until combined.
  • Insert an ice-pop stick into one end of each sausage, leaving a 1 1/2-inch handle. Dust with flour; tap off excess. Using handle, rotate each sausage over bowl as you spoon batter to coat evenly. Place on sheet; bake 5 minutes. Remove from oven. Using a spatula, reapply batter that has slipped onto sheet. Return to oven; bake until golden, 20 minutes. Serve with ketchup and mustard, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure your oil is hot enough before frying the corn dogs. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when frying the corn dogs. This will cause them to cook unevenly.
  • If you don't have a deep fryer, you can also fry the corn dogs in a large saucepan filled with oil.
  • Serve the corn dogs immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Corn dogs are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or meal. With a variety of recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you'll love. So next time you're looking for something quick and tasty, give corn dogs a try!
