PARTY FRANKS
These tiny, tangy appetizers have broad appeal. I prepare them often for holiday gatherings, weddings and family reunions. They're convenient to serve at parties since the sauce can be made ahead and then reheated with the franks before serving. -Lucille Howell, Portland, Oregon

PARTY FRANKS
This is a very old sweet and sour cocktail recipe; I remember looking forward to it as a kid at my Mom's holiday parties. It will look horrible and smell worse when first in the pan, but just wait. Don't ever tell what's in the sauce until after your guests have tasted it (otherwise they'll never try it). Serve with toothpicks; keep warm with a fondue pot.

Steps:
- Make the franks: Whisk the flour, cornmeal, sugar and paprika in a large bowl. Add the egg and milk and whisk to make a thick batter, adding more milk if the mixture is too dry. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
- Heat about 2 inches vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Dip the franks in the batter, then carefully wrap a long curly fry around each. (If desired, thread the franks on wooden skewers before wrapping with fries.)
- Working in batches, fry the franks in the hot oil, turning, until golden on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; sprinkle with salt.
- Meanwhile, make the dip: Whisk the Sriracha, lime juice and mayonnaise in a bowl. Serve with the franks.

GLAZED COCKTAIL FRANKS
When I was stationed in Germany in 1980, this recipe was given to me by my unit commander's wife (Karen Earlewine). You can substitute cut-up hot dogs for the cocktail franks.

Steps:
- Drain pineapple juice into a large saucepan. To the juice, add sauerkraut, tomato sauce, pepper, ginger, and sugar. Simmer 30 minutes.
- Add cocktail franks, jelly, and pineapple. Cook until jelly melts and franks are hot.
- This can be cooked in a crockpot - just combine all the ingredients and cook on low for 3-4 hours.
Tips:
- Use high-quality cocktail franks. Look for plump, evenly-sized franks that are free of blemishes.
- Score the franks before cooking. This will help the glaze adhere better and allow the franks to cook more evenly.
- Cook the franks until they are slightly caramelized. This will give them a delicious crispy exterior and a tender, juicy interior.
- Make the glaze ahead of time. This will save you time when you're ready to cook the franks.
- Experiment with different glazes. There are endless possibilities, so have fun and find the one you like best.
- Serve the franks immediately. They are best when hot and fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Glazed cocktail franks are a delicious and easy appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack, give glazed cocktail franks a try. You won't be disappointed!
