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.

NYC-style hot dogs with street-cart onions image

Try these NYC-inspired hot dogs: frankfurters topped with classic caramelised onions, ketchup, American mustard and a little sauerkraut

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Lunch, Snacks

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 large frankfurters
4 hot dog buns, split
sauerkraut, to serve
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 large onions, halved and sliced
1⁄4 tsp ground cinnamon
large pinch of chilli powder
2 tbsp honey
2 tsp American-style mustard, plus extra to serve
2 tsp ketchup, plus extra to serve
2 tsp tomato purée
2 tsp cider or white wine vinegar
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • First, make the onions. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a low-medium heat and cook the onions for 10-12 mins until golden and slightly charred in spots.
  • Stir in the cinnamon, chilli powder, honey, mustard, ketchup, tomato purée, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, 2-3 tbsp water and a pinch of salt. Simmer for 1-2 mins until the onions are saucy, adding a splash more water if they seem dry. Taste and add a little more chilli powder, mustard or a pinch of sugar, if you like. Keep the onions warm if you're serving straightaway or cool and chill. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. Reheat over a low heat before serving, adding a splash of water to loosen as needed.
  • Light a barbecue and wait until the coals are ashen, set a gas barbecue to medium or heat a griddle pan over a medium heat. Alternatively, bring a pan of water to a simmer. Cook the frankfurters for 15 mins on the barbecue or in a griddle pan until charred, or for 8 mins in a pan of simmering water. If using a barbecue, warm the buns over the coals, if you like. Spoon a little sauerkraut into each bun, top with a frankfurter and spoon over the onions. Drizzle over some extra mustard and ketchup.

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.
