Idaho Dogs for #SundaySupper


Every summer when the grill comes out so do the hamburgers and hotdogs! Since July is National Hotdog month Christie of A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures invited the Sunday Supper tastemakers to bring their best dogs to the table. And hamburgers just seemed to be a natural pairing with hotdogs, so we're sharing those, too.

Idaho Dogs

I had initially planned to make Puka Dogs because I love the story of their name and we love Kauai though we never did have Puka Dogs when we were in Poipu. However, after testing the recipe, we decided it was just too sweet - sweet rolls, sweet relish, and even sweet mustard. It was too much sweet for my crew. So, I changed directions and went with an Idaho Dog. Full disclosure, I saw a photo of an "Idaho Dog" on pinterest and decided to go for it; I did not, however, check with my family in Idaho to actually verify that they have these there. Whoops.

Ingredients serves 4

  • 4 large potatoes - as long as you can find them!
  • 4 hot dogs (I found some locally made, uncured and fully-cooked hot dogs)
  • butter
  • organic sour cream
  • organic chives
  • freshly ground salt
  • freshly ground pepper


Procedure

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wash and dry your potatoes. Pierce them with a fork or toothpick at least six times so that the moisture can escape during cooking. Wrap them in tinfoil.

Bake for an hour or until the potato feels soft when you squeeze it. During the last 15 minutes of baking, grill your hot dogs until warmed through.

To serve, remove the potatoes from the foil and slice them down the middle, lengthwise. Gently squeeze the ends of the potato towards the each other; the potato should crack open.

Mash some of the potato away from the sides toward the bottom and place a pat of butter in the potato. 


Place the cooked hot dog inside the potato.


Top with sour cream, snipped chives, salt, and pepper. Enjoy!

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce

Aloo Tiki {Pakistan}

To start off our Pakistani culinary adventure, I started us off with aloo tiki - potato cutlets. I'm always game for tasty street food. I found a couple of different recipes and incorporated those together for this version. Ingredients 6-8 small red potatoes, scrubbed 1 T cumin seeds 1 T fresh chopped parsley 1/2 t ground coriander 1 t minced garlic Procedure Boil the potatoes until they are tender. Drain and let cool. Mash the potatoes. Traditionally they are mashed without their skins. I left the skins on. In a small pan, toast the cumin seeds on high heat until the begin to give off an aroma and begin to darken. Remove from heat and transfer to a plate to keep them from cooking any more. Blend all of the spices into the mashed potatoes, then shape into small patties. If you wet your hands, the potato mixture won't stick to them. Heat a splash of oil in a large, flat-bottom pan. Dip each patty into beaten egg and carefully place in the oil. P

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an
