Pardon my Spanish but how do you call that in German? I know english has no word for "stuff between normal breads", that's not a sandwich. In Spain we call it "bocata". Do you have a distinct word to differentiate from a sandwich?

It's a pet peeve of mine, alongside calling everything "salami".

cuerdo@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 87d

In English they are called Sub from "submarine sandwich", based on traditional Italian style sandwiches that are the same as Bocatas. That is also where Subway restaurants get their name.

But yes, the issue is that nor in Germany nor England have the "normal" bread, which they call Baguette.

The closest thing I would say for Germans is a Brötchen, which in Spanish would be like a panecillo. What you are seeing in the picture is a Bratwurst Brötchen

What condiments are on it? Relish?

skeesx@piefed.social · 2 pts · 86d

Relishes aren't really a thing in Germany, so, traditionally you only put mustard on a Bratwurstbrötchen. However, the sausage itself already contains herbs and spices, like a copious amount of marjoram, some pepper, mace, allspice, and sometimes wild garlic, caraway, or ginger.

Agent641@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 86d

Use a taller bun. I also am on team under-over. While the double barrel approach is innovative, it sacrifices on handling. Harder to properly grasp. An under-over config allows tall bun sides that can support a tactical grip with one or both hands without getting saucy fingers.

I've eaten a double hotdog a couple times. The bun wasn't twice as wide but twice as long. So it had to be thicker so the meat to bun ratio was actually smaller. It's the first thing you eat hung over at a music festival so who cares.

The best way to do a hot dog is "open face," where you cut it down the length, but not enough to fully separate into two halves. Then spread and press the open insides against the pan before flipping to the other side. It's like butterflying a chicken. More surface area = more maillard reaction/yummy brown bits.
