Boil Hot Dogs

There is more than one way to boil a hot dog and you will be blown away by the delicious and most importantly, easy options there are. It is all about flavor optimization and then, of course, your favorite toppings.

Ingredients:

2 quarts water or 4 12oz cans of beer
2-4 bouillon cubes , beef or chicken flavor
1 head of garlic , cut in half crosswise, skin on
1 small yellow onion cut in half , skin on
small bunch parsley
1 tablespoon whole cumin seeds or 1 or 2 whole star anise
8 package your favorite hot dogs
8 hot dog buns
favorite toppings

Direction

Heat the liquid and dissolve the bouillon cubes into it. Add the garlic through the cumin seeds and heat on medium-high until you reach a rolling boil. Drop the heat down to a simmer and allow the flavors to meld. This will also boil off the alcohol in the beer if you are using that as your liquid.
Turn the heat off and add your hot dogs gently into the pot. Allow them to warm through. This should take 2-4 minutes depending on how cold they are when they go in.
Pull them out of the water and allow them to drain briefly on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings.
