  • Chop the onion and dice the pickle. Heat a skillet and fry the frankfurters. Then fry the bacon until crisp and cut it up. Spread mustard on the baguette. Add the lettuce, frankfurter, onion, pickle, and bacon, then top with ketchup. The hot dog is a bun with a frankfurter or sausage, dressed with ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, and sometimes vegetables (fresh, pickled, or fried), herbs, cheese, or bacon. It's usually eaten by hand, no utensils or plate needed, and there are countless variations. The story goes that a Frankfurt butcher made a sausage he called "Dachshundwurst," literally "dachshund sausage." A German immigrant brought it to the United States and, starting in 1871, began selling it wrapped in slices of bread, moving thousands of "dachshunds" in a single year. The dish took off. In 1901, cartoonist Tad Dorgan reportedly noticed a vendor swapping the usual flat slices of bread for a split bun that held the sausage more neatly. Dorgan wanted to draw the scene but wasn't sure how to spell "Dachshund," so he simply labeled the item a "hot dog." A popular explanation ties the name to the resemblance between "dogs" and "Dachshund" in some accents, especially among German speakers who devoice the final consonants, though in New York pronunciation the two words sound nothing alike, which suggests the story is a later invention. In 1987, Frankfurt, Germany celebrated the hot dog's 100th anniversary, though Austrians dispute this, pointing to their Vienna sausages as proof of its origin.
