NOMINATED AS ONE OF CHICAGO’S WONDERS: Chicago Hot Dogs :
Not much in this world is perfect.
The Chicago Hot Dog is perfect.
Boiled or steamed, not grilled, it lies regally in a lightly steamed poppy-seed bun and is anointed with:
- Diced onion
- Tomato wedges
- Pickle relish the color of Kryptonite
- Yellow mustard
- A few sport peppers
- A dill pickle spear
- A shake of celery salt
There’s your classic Chicago-style dog, a perfect teaming of tastes and colors and textures.
Boiled or steamed, not grilled, it lies regally in a lightly steamed poppy-seed bun and is anointed with:
We don’t have to mention, no ketchup! None! Ever! Do we?
Pretty good, but remove the radioactive relish and substitute a good brown mustard for the yellow, and it would be a bit closer to perfection for me (yes, I know I might get flack from Chicagoans for messing with “perfection”).
Well, the Neon Green Kryptonite Relish is a “speciality” of SuperDawg(TM); but any way ya dresses it — they is gotta be one of the 7-Wonders of Chicago!!!
And thanks for the link. *smile*
