Ingredients
Hot Dogs:
8 all-beef full-size hot dogs
2 large egg yolks
All-purpose flour, for dusting
8 rectangles premade puff pastry, 5-by-4 1/2-inches each, thawed
Everything Spice:
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 tablespoon flaky sea salt
2 teaspoons onion powder
Sauce:
1/4 cup grainy Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon hot sauce (I like Tabasco)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- For the hot dogs: Use a paring knife to cut some incisions in the hot dogs. Whisk the egg yolks with a splash of cold water in a small bowl for the egg wash.
- Make the blankets and roll: Sprinkle some flour on a flat surface. Place one of the puff pastry sheets on the floured surface. Roll each hot dog so it’s fully wrapped in a single piece of the pastry and use some of the egg wash to seal the edge shut. Pinch the two edges to firmly close.
- For the everything spice mix: Combine both types of sesame seeds, garlic, poppy seeds, sea salt and onion powder in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Roll in everything spice: Place the everything spice into a small baking sheet lined with parchment or a medium baking dish. Brush each pig in a blanket with egg wash on all sides and roll each dog in the spice mix, pressing gently so the spices stick and slightly embed themselves in the pastry. Place each wrapped piece on the baking sheet, seam-side down, with an inch or two in between each for even browning. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
- For the dipping sauce: Whisk together the mustard, honey and hot sauce in a medium bowl.
- Place the baking sheet in the center of the oven and bake until the pastry is nicely golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve with the sauce on the side.
