- Are you following me?
If I go close, are you going to focus?
No.
I've done this before, I swear.
Hey, guys, it's Candice, the Edgy Veg
and today I am going to show you
how you can top your hotdogs in 10 different creative ways.
Alright, guys, summer is slowly rolling on to a close.
I know, it's very pessimistic of me
but I wore a jean jacket today.
So you kind of just have to embrace fact.
Just because summer's coming to a close
doesn't mean that we're not going to stop barbecuing
any time soon so I wanted to share with you
some fun ways to top your hotdogs.
I mean, ketchup and mustard are great.
I'm a ketchup girl myself but there are so many fun
and interesting ways that you can top a hotdog
almost like bringing it up to a higher level.
I mean, yes, we've got our sauerkraut and we have our onions
but there are so many other exciting ways
and I'm gonna show you how to do it right now.
Alright, hotdog number one.
I like to call this guy street corn
because of the influence that I got
from street corn to create this one.
So we are going to add some lime mayo,
some fire roasted corn, cilantro
and then you can add your choice
of chili flakes or chili powder.
Hotdog number two is French onion.
That was really lame.
And it's called French onion
because I use my French onion dip.
If you want the recipe for that,
I will post it somewhere up here
as well as the link in the description box below
along with the recipes for today's video
and then some diced red onions.
Some crushed potato chips.
Potatoes chips.
Chips that belong to the potato.
And that's it.
Hotdog number three is called the Italian Stallion
but if I'm honest with myself,
it's about as Italian as an Olive Garden
so do with that information what you will.
Delicious nonetheless.
On this guy, we are going to add
some vegan parm of your choice,
some delicious marinara, some sauteed mushrooms
and I'm gonna put that under the broiler
just until the cheese melts.
Careful not to burn the bun.
It's like an eggplant parm
except with a vegan hot dog in the middle.
Wiener number four is the jalapeno popper.
I took inspiration from yes, a jalapeno popper.
So on this guy, we are going to slather
some vegan cream cheese.
I like Tofutti.
You can use whatever brand you want.
If you make your own, even better.
Then we are going to top that with some pickled jalapenos
as well as some toasted panko breadcrumbs and that's it.
Hi, I'm still here.
I just moved to a different part of my kitchen
because the sun came out and I don't have any curtains yet.
Yay, new house.
I keep calling it my house, it's a condo.
It's a condo.
Alright, hotdog number five is called nachos.
So on this big guy,
we are going to put some nacho cheese sauce.
The recipe for that I'll leave a link
in the description box below.
It's also in my cookbook if you want the updated version.
We're gonna top that with some sliced jalapenos,
cilantro and some crushed tortilla chips.
Hotdog number six is pad thai.
We are going to toss that with some Asian slaw.
Toss it with Asian slaw.
We're not tossing this hotdog with any slaw.
The slaw will already be tossed
and we're gonna put it on the hotdog
as well as peanut sauce and of course crushed peanuts.
Hotdog number seven I call the Hawaiian.
It is topped with some barbecue sauce
then we're gonna top that with some grilled pineapple.
You can do this right on your barbecue.
You can also do it in the oven if you do not have a barbecue
and some onions.
Eating this guy is gonna taste like a vacation
if your vacation consists of barbecue sauce and pineapple
with a touch of onion.
Hotdog number eight I call the buffalo dog.
This guy's gonna be topped with a vegan ranch.
I have a recipe that I will leave
in the description box below or if you have your own recipe
or store-bought works too, you can do that.
As well as Frank's RedHot
then we are going to top that with some celery
and call it a day.
This one's a messy one.
We're getting super close.
We're at number nine.
I can count.
I watched Sesame Street as a kid.
Okay.
Hotdog number nine I like to call the bahn mi
because it has some of my favorite bahn mi toppings.
Some of them, not all of them.
You can only build these things so high, guys.
So this guy is casually topped casually.
Yes, no long term relationship for this hotdog.
Let's try that again.
This guy is topped with some delicious kimchi.
You can add as little or as much as you'd like.
I like a lot.
I love my fermented foods.
We're going to top that with a vegan mayo
and then of course some green onion
and last but not least we have hotdog number 10.
This guy I named after a Reuben.
I called it the Reuben
and that's because of the use of Swiss cheese,
sauerkraut then caramelized onions.
Delicious.
It's a classic flavor combination.
(calm music)
