Danish Rode Prose

Røde Pølse - Danish Hot Dog

The Danish hot dog is grilled and usually extends over the edges of a hot dog bun. If you can't find the long pork Grillpølse or Røde Pølse (red), just replace it with any natural casing hot dog you like. Typically, the dogs are garnished with chopped raw onions, crisp fried onions, large round sliced pickles, mustard, ketchup, and Danish remoulade.
