A hot dog, in essence, is an empty canvas: a simple meat and bun combination that inspires and facilitates a range of tastes. Take a culinary adventure around the world with these cultural variations on a classic childhood staple.None of the ingredients are to measure since hot dogs and servings can vary in size. Are you a person of a one hotdog, two hotdog or three hotdog appetite?
