About Hot dog
A hot dog is a prepared sausage, commonly served in a split bread roll, though the term can refer to the sausage alone. The sausage is usually smooth and compact, with a savoury, seasoned flavour; ingredients and texture depend on the product.
Hot dogs are sold cooked or ready to heat, and may be made from different meats or meat mixtures. They can be served whole or sliced and heated by boiling, grilling, or other methods. The name does not specify a particular formulation or serving accompaniments.
