      It's a pupusa. There's already a word for it, why do we need to give it another?

        Balkan grill

        So I looked this up and found a restaurant in Germany? The food looks amazing and I'm going to have to find recipes for half their menu.

        So the way this discussion is going, it reminds me of an old cookbook that describes curry as "a gravy laden with spices and made with the milk of coconut." While the description conveys the details well, I don't think any sane person would say gravy and curry are the same category. The issue comes from the difference in cultural meanings and the way languages steal words. My classifications are based off the mid western American concepts of hotdog and there for would not work outside of a region familiar with it.

        I guess the only good option to finally solvr this debate would be a latin taxonomy like we do for animals and plants.

        I don't think any sane person would say gravy and curry are the same category.

        Why? Culinarily*, curry and gravy are quite similar, and serve similar functions. Obviously they don't taste all that similar, but I don't think that really matters much when you consider the vast variety of flavors that curries come in.

        And actually, now that I think of it, Japanese curries do share quite a few flavors with a Western meat-dripping-based gravy. In fact, I'm pretty sure the directions on the packaged* curry cubes I get from the Asian grocer refer to the curry sauce as "gravy". So yeah, actually, plenty of sane people put curry and gravy in the same category, for solid reasons.

                my cool brother taught me the fattest of assery in hotdogdom and i can probably handle one of these a year. they're great tho

                My Cool Brother's Baco-dogs

                Ingredients and Build Order
                bun
                mayo
                crumbled bacon
                narrow all beef hot dogs (sliced lengthwise)
                thick freshly grated cheddar of your preferred sharpness (hard)
                dill relish
                a thin squiggle of ketchup
                a thicker but not overwhelming line of brown deli mustard
                a dusting of celery salt (i can't remember if this was in the original recipe or i added it after experiencing a real chicago dog)

                Method
                you want to fry the bacon, slice the hot dog lengthwise and fry the dog in the bacon grease. fry until you've got some good browning/maillard bullshit on the cut side, but fry both sides. then build the dog in the order above, from outside to in. yes, you have stuff in between the halves of the hotdog. sometimes we toast the bun, usually not because there's enough hogfat in there already. also mayo-ing hot bread ain't the best.

                    I will fight you on this.

                    A hotdog is a specific type of soft sausage inside a bun. If you have just the sausage part you would not call that a hotdog (at least not where I live) but a frankfurter (we have a special word for this type of sausage).

                    The bread needs to be a certain shape as well. Long round and thin. Either one where it goes in from the top (sliced by length)

                    like this or pushed in the same way as the longer axis of bread goes like this

                    .

                    If you put it inside two slices of bread you made a frankfurter sandwich. So thus it needs to be the right sausage in the right bread to be considered a hotdog.

                        While I appreciate the topological approach, I hold to a linguistic and practical reason for a hot dog, as it is usually eaten, not (typically) being a sandwich:

                        1. what does it mean for a thing to be "sandwiched"? It means pressed on two sides, held together by the force of that pressure.
                        2. what is the difference between a hot dog and a hero/po-boy/sub? Well, heros and po-boys are held together by the bread. You can turn them on their side, and they should not fall apart, because the primary force holding them together is pressure on either side of the bread. Hot dogs, at least in my limited experience, are defined by their toppings, which are placed atop the frankfurter, and held in place by gravity alone.

                        As such I give my typology: if the primary force holding your dish together is pressure on two sides from a retaining material? Sandwich. If the primary force holding it together is gravity? That bread is being used as a trencher. As such, most hot dogs, most tacos, bread bowls and other such things are all basically just a version of a bread bowl or bread plate. For this reason, I call them "Trenchers". Pizza is not primarily held together by gravity or by sandwiching forces, and thus is normally neither of these. Pizza's primary force maintaining its integrity is the cheese and other sticky things holding onto any toppings. As such, pizza would be equivalent to toast with spread, cheese, and other toppings, similar to garlic bread. All functionally just "adorned breads".

                        So, to reiterate, I don't disagree that hot dogs can be sandwiches, but in general practice, I do not believe they qualify, much like most tacos do not qualify.

                            Send me the name and place of the restaurant so I can check out how authentic their food is. Or I can send you some recipes.

                              I see. Differneces between languages then. We only call lettuce the ones which are quite crunchy and full of water. Kale rucola and sinilar are just the name.

                                An interesting thesis! Please elaborate, and then let's discuss where the lines are between casseroles, quiches, open pies, pastry-covered pies, calzones/empanadas/gyoza and wraps/burritos

                                      only because they hadn't tasted good bread before. whenever i'm in non-UK europe I practically live off of sandwiches.

                                          Naturally.

                                          I mean, this is a common prawn sandwich from us in Sweden:

                                          You can get them anywhere and they not only taste great, but smell fresh and lovely.

                                          Though, I can absolutely see a reason why this should not be allowed on a plane; shellfish allergy.
