Serves: 2 dozen
Ingredients
  • 1 package Puff Pastry, thawed
  • 1 pound Hot Dogs (frankfurters) (use 10 to a pound ones)
Toppings
  • Sesame Seeds
  • Poppy Seeds
  • Sea Salt (Kosher Salt or Pretzel Salt or other large grain salt)

Egg Wash
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 Tablespoon Water
Instructions
Egg Wash
  1. Place one egg along with one tablespoon water in a bowl and using a fork or small whisk to mix well.
Preparation and Assembly
  1. Prepare the hot days by slicing them into three equal size pieces (if you want smaller or larger appetizers slice them as desired)
  2. Unfold a sheet of puff pastry. Slice the pastry into strips slightly larger the the hot dog pieces. Using a pizza cutter makes cutting the strips much easier, of course you can use a knife.
  3. Prepare you baking sheet by placing a piece of parchment on it. Alternatively you can use a greased baking pan or a pan lined with a silicon mat.
  4. Place a piece of hot dog at the edge of the puff pastry slice, and roll up. Where the end meets the strip, slice the strip of.
  5. Pinch the seams together.
  6. Dip the seam side down into the egg wash and then into the sesame seeds (or other toppings as desired). Place on prepared baking sheet.
Baking Instructions
  1. Bake in a preheated 400ºF/205ºC oven and bake 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is a golden brown.
  2. Serve with dipping sauce as desired.
Notes
Meat substitution - You can use Vienna Sausages, cocktail franks, sausage links (up to ½-inch (1.25 cm) in diameter) or hot dogs.
