In Korea, where I grew up, hot dogs are more like corn dogs. I was confused at first with the cultural difference, but since moving to the United States, I’ve quickly embraced my love of American-style hot dogs, too.
I’ve also learned that there are many different types of regional hot dogs. Recently, Chicago-style hot dogs caught my attention. Beyond the standard drizzle of yellow mustard, there are so many colorful components—pickles! tomatoes! peppers!
