Sourdough Series – Part 3
The sourdough craze continues here in the kitchen and for this third post in my sourdough series I’m making Sourdough Hot Dog Wraps! The sourdough starter I wrote about in a previous post, that also included Sourdough Pancakes, is needed. This is incorporated into a new dough that needs to sit overnight to make the wraps. See I didn’t want a store bought bun, and I didn’t want one flavor, so I decided to bump it up with three different flavor profiles for these wraps.
These are perfect for on-the-go Summer fun, too. I mean, all the fixings and condiments are all inside, no fuss, no mess! Bring these out when hiking, at the beach, or that next picnic.
For this post I’ve partnered up with Ball Park and they were kind enough to ship me some of their new frankfurters – Ball Park Park’s Finest. These uncured beef frankfurters have NO artificial preservatives and NO nitrates or nitrites added. These guys are made with 100% beef, too. Pretty amazing, right?
To start let’s combine the sourdough starter, flour, salt, sugar and yeast in bowl of stand mixer with dough hook attachment. Add filtered water, beat on low speed for 3 minutes, adding flour as needed to reach a wet ball consistency. Knead on lowest speed until dough bounces back softly when pressed, about 4 minutes. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Remove dough from refrigerator. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut dough into eight equal portions, roll each into 8 x 5 rectangles on a lightly floured surface.
Spread each with your favorite condiment, place hotdogs on top and wrap around hot dog. I’ve detailed below the three different flavor profiles that I did. I needed to mark the initials of the different flavors on the parchment paper so I knew which was which! Feel free to create your own. I think next time I make these I’ll load two hot dogs inside of each and with a side dish of some fresh fruit salad, call it a great lunch!
Preheat oven to 350°F. Place the Sourdough Hot Dog Wraps on a baking sheet seam side down. In a small bowl whisk together egg and half teaspoon of water. Brush each hot dog blanket with egg wash, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, sesame and poppy seeds. Bake until sourdough bread is puffed and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
I made these to do something different, but for a grilled version of these hot dogs check out my Ball Park Park’s Finest Hot Dogs with Sriracha Catsup and all the Fixings.
The Ball Park Park’s Finest product line launched nationally in January 2014, and most recently expanded to include two new bold varieties  – Slow Cooked Chili and Jalapeno Cheddar, which are incredible. I received their Signature Seasoned, the Jalapeño Cheddar and my favorite, the Slow Cooked Chili Dog. They come 7 to a package and I figured I’d take these up a notch when grilling.
For this first one I used the Signature Seasoned hot dog with a healthy slathering of Dijon mustard on the inside of the dough prior to wrapping. The top of the bun was egg washed and dusted with Parmesan cheese.
For this second flavor profile I used the Jalapeno Cheddar hot dog. You can visually see flecks of cheese and jalapeño in these! I kept it simple on the inside with just some standard yellow mustard and ketchup on the inside of the dough prior to wrapping. The top of the bun was egg washed and dusted with sesame seeds.Â
For this third flavor profile I used the Slow Cooked Chili Dog hot dog. I put chopped onions and cheddar cheese on the inside of the dough prior to wrapping. The top of the bun was egg washed and dusted with poppy seeds. The aroma is incredible! Definitely my favorite, but they are all insanely tasty.

Nutrition
The information shown is an estimate provided by an online nutrition calculator. It should not be considered a substitute for a professional nutritionist’s advice.
This does not take 35 minutes. It takes 8 hours and 35 minutes. I was looking for a quick recipe and had to read it to realize it took way longer than 35 minutes.
It does state all time(s) in the recipe card?
I see the recipe card but Google (somehow) says otherwise.
Can this be done without yeast? I am exploring and experimenting with different sourdough items and do not use yeast in my other baking.
What does the yeast add? if it is just to help it rise, couldn’t you substitute baking powder?
It’s just often times without that added yeast boost, the sourdough starter isn’t enough to give these the rise they need. Flour and bread making is so temperamental!
I made this recipe without added yeast but I made sure my starter was nicely active. Worked out deliciously!
