Frankfurters - how does one eat them?

Frankfurters or 'Hot Dogs' are usually pre-cooked (so they could be eaten cold from the packet). They are usually heated by boiling, steaming or grilling and then served (sometimes with fried onion) in a long. split bread roll with mustard, ketchup or other sauces. They were originally a speciality of Frankfurt but were brought to the US by German immigrants. They are sometimes called Weiners, though that is technically a very similar sausage coming from Vienna ('Wein', in German). There's no reason why you shouldn't wrap them in any suitable Indian bread and eat them with, say, a mango or lime chutney or other sauces to your liking!

eat them like a hot dog. dice them up and mix them other things. ive even gone as far as making a pasta salad and putting slices of sausage in it in place of ham.

I am wondering how does it differ from a hotdog . Though i have already eaten one before and can say that they taste deliciously than hotdog . I guess that's the difference .

@allknowing I do not eat them.But even if I did I would boil them or cut and fry them.

Remove from the pack, drop them into a pan of almost boiling water and leave for about 8mins - then serve hot on a bun with mustard or ketchup. These ones are a regular feature with us:

I might eat them like this or in a bun but always with tomato sauce on them.

Nor me I don´t eat them anymore but I always heated them in a frying pan before eating as the idea of cold stuff did not appeal to me or the others either. Enjoy them they make a good snack or meal.

Do you use just normal sandwich bread? I've eaten them with hot dog buns...

I love to eat polish sausages on hot dog buns they are so good.

As you mention above, I too would call those in the picture above sausages. Our frankfurters look different than that and we boil them lightly, put them in some bread or a bun and smother them in tomato sauce.

I usually either fry or bake them, sometimes I cut them into small pieces, to eat with pasta.

How do you eat Frankfurters? I don't. However, if I did like those things, I would boil them in a pot of water and then put them in a bun.

Hot Dogs (frankfurters) are extremely beloved in America. Here, we traditionally eat them in conjunction with baseball games. The history behind this is related to how the increasingly popular sport of baseball grew in popularity among immigrants in New York City. Many American immigrants in the 18th-19th century were from Germany. When the immigrants got together to enjoy a game, they would share a variety of foods, including the frankfurter! I suggest eating them in one to two ways: 1. Boil them, get some hot dog buns, and enjoy with ketchup and onions 2. Cut them into small circles, sautee with green onions, peppers, or any local vegetable, pair with some bread, and dig in :)
