Wieners

haha. Ok so this dish is really a type of hot dog. On the way to my apartment in LA from OC I stopped by alpine village. It's a German deli/market and they make the best salamis and sausages. In the meat case these are literally labeled wieners. I made lots of dirty jokes while buying them haha.

To finish the dish I simply baked a potato and some crescent rolls. Look in my previous posts to see how to make the potato. To make the crescent rolls just follow the package directions. For a really nice touch pour some large grains of salt (like sea salt or kosher) into your hand. Press the top of the crescent roll dough the salt becomes in-bedded. This is a simple step that adds a ton of flavor because salt wakes up your taste buds.

For the wieners: bring a large pot of water to a boil. Prick wieners with a fork a few times for venting holes (don't do this around guys, it makes them wince hahahah) Add wieners to boiling water and then turn heat off. allow wieners to heat through slowly for about 5 minutes. Leave extra wieners in water to keep warm while eating.
