NEW YORK HOT DOG CART ONION SAUCE



New York Hot Dog Cart Onion Sauce image

Born in the Bronx, raised in Queens. My father worked for Pan Am in the day (data Control), drove a New York Cab at night, and on the weekends he owned a New York Hot Dog Cart. Before he passed away in February of 2004, he did give me the recipe to the Onion Sauce. When everybody else is saying to use pasta sauce, and this and that, the truth is there are only six ingredients. Bobby Flay is about the only one who got it close. In New York a true New York Hot Dog ordered from a cart is, Nathan Hot Dogs, Mustard, Onion Sauce, and topped with Sauerkraut. I wanted to write this recipe for a long time but after seeing so many Onion Sauce recipes, and hearing how so many people are from New York, it is time to post the original recipe.

NEW YORK PUSHCART ONIONS (FOR HOT DOGS)



New York Pushcart Onions (For Hot Dogs) image

I am a Canadian who spent 6 winters in Florida, and while there I met a person from New York (Brian). I did the cooking for most parties at the park, including snacks for our golf group which met twice a week after golf. Brian told me about the Push Cart Onions and I tried them with the group. They loved them. You can play with this recipe to suit your taste. Add more or less sugar, maybe a little more hot sauce, etc.

NEW YORK-STYLE HOT DOGS



New York-Style Hot Dogs image

Nothing says summer like a hot dog! It's one of those foods that kick-starts a season, and a NY-style dog is always my first choice. I have such great memories of living in New York City and having a hot dog at a baseball game, or for a late-night snack or just grabbing one from a cart while walking around the city. Once I moved to California I had to learn how to make the iconic sweet onions coated in tangy tomato sauce myself. Now the traditional New York-style hot dog can welcome me to summer every year.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 small sweet onions, such as Maui or Vidalia, each about 5 ounces, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
4 hot dogs
4 hot dog buns

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. When the oil is hot, stir in the onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring every minute or so, until the onions have softened and begin to caramelize, about 8 minutes.
  • Stir in the tomato paste, stirring until the onions are completely coated. Cook until the tomato paste deepens in color, about 1 minute. Stir in the vinegar, scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Stir in 1 cup of water, the sugar and garlic powder. Raise the heat to medium and bring to a rapid simmer. Reduce the heat to low and gently simmer until the sauce reduces and thickens enough so a spoon leaves behind a trail, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
  • While the onions simmer, place the hot dogs on a baking sheet and bake until heated through and they begin to brown on the bottoms, about 10 minutes, flipping once about halfway through the cooking time. If you like, open the hot dog buns and toast the buns alongside the dogs for the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  • Place the hot dogs in the buns and top with the onions. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality hot dogs: The hot dog is the star of the show, so make sure to use a good-quality one. Look for hot dogs that are made with 100% beef and have a nice smoky flavor.
  • Grill the hot dogs over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning and will give them a nice char.
  • Don't overcook the hot dogs: Hot dogs are best when they are cooked through but still juicy. Overcooking them will make them tough and dry.
  • Use a good-quality onion sauce: The onion sauce is what really makes this hot dog special. Make sure to use a sauce that is made with fresh onions and has a nice tangy flavor.
  • Top the hot dog with your favorite toppings: There are many different toppings that you can add to your hot dog. Some popular choices include sauerkraut, mustard, ketchup, and relish.

Conclusion:

The New York hot dog with onion sauce is a classic American dish that is loved by people of all ages. It is a simple but delicious meal that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. If you are looking for a new way to enjoy hot dogs, then this recipe is definitely worth trying. With its juicy hot dog, tangy onion sauce, and your favorite toppings, this hot dog is sure to be a hit.
