Dachshunds (Hot Dogs) [LSCDL

Recipe]

Given the number of times my Dachshunds have been referred

to as “weenie dogs” over the years, how could I resist?

3-4 feet large collagen casing

2 ½ pounds ground round

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon ground mustard seed or 1 teaspoon legal Creole mustard

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

¼ teaspoon dried marjoram

2 tablespoons homemade onion powder -or- ¼ cup finely minced fresh yellow

onion

¼ teaspoon homemade garlic powder -or- 1-2 fingers garlic, pressed

2 teaspoons honey

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon white pepper

1 egg

Whirl dry spices in a blender to fully combine (or mix well with a whisk

in a bowl), then add to the meat. If onion and garlic are not dry, add

them. Mix well. When you think you have it mixed, keep mixing.

Add the egg[1]. Mix well again.

Stuff mixture into the casings according to the directions for your

stuffer. (I use an inexpensive jerky shooter for this.) Prick air pockets

and twist off in 6-8 inch links. If separate sausages are desired, tie

off each link with a piece of string, then cut between the two links.

Otherwise, do not cut apart.

If you do not have a stuffer, form hot dog sized pieces of mixture and

wrap well in foil for baking. If hot dogs are in cases, boil in gently

simmering water for about 20 minutes. Otherwise, bake at 215°F for about

45 minutes[2]. Serve. Or, allow to cool, and then freeze for later

reheating.

Variations:

· Use half beef and half

pork

· Substitute mace for

nutmeg

· Use ground turkey or

chicken

[1] Several recipes call for 1 egg white and ¼ cup

SCD illegal milk. I use a whole egg. You could also use the egg yolk, 2

tablespoons water, and 2 tablespoons yogurt cheese. For an egg-free

version, substitute ¼ - cup peeled, cooked, puréed vegetable, such as

zucchini (courgettes). For a dairy-free version, simply omit the yogurt

cheese. Haven't kitchen tested an egg-free and

dairy-free version.

[2] I have always baked mine.
