Hot Dog Skewers

  1. Cut hot dogs into segments. Thread skewers with a fresh mozzarella ball, a hot dog segment, another fresh mozzarella ball and then a hot dog segment. 

Breading

  1. Using a traditional breading method, put dry tempura batter in a 2½ inch hotel pan, prepared tempura batter (according to package instructions) in a second hotel pan, and toasted panko in a third hotel pan. 
  2. Dredge hot dog and cheese skewers in dry tempura, dip in tempura batter, and dredge in panko.
  3. If breading for service, fry skewers in a deep fryer until golden brown. Drain and allow to cool slightly. 
  4. If breading as a production batch, freeze skewers until ready to fry. Thaw to temper and fry as needed. 

Saucing

  1. Hold skewers and drizzle unagi and wasabi sauces in a zig-zag pattern. Serve immediately.

THE STORY OF SOY SAUCE

Even people who love soy sauce and use it all the time are often surprised to learn what it is and how it’s made. We make ours from just four simple ingredients—water, soybeans, wheat, and salt. Those ingredients are transformed through a traditional brewing process—much like making wine or beer—that has remained unchanged for centuries.
