What toppings or condiments do you like to put on your hot dog?
Absolutely in love with the new intro 😍
Maybe it’s a Cali thing but I’ve only seen hot dog buns be cut from the side. I think that’s how they are when packaged too for some reason lol
Can you do an episode for perogies??? The regular cheese/potato filled ones??? I'd make those SO fast if you did an episode on them!!!!
I know what I'm serving on my birthday party this year!! That looks sooo good! Either that or Claire's pigs in a blanket
Thank you for all you do Claire…. Serious love!!!
Please leave the Claire Facts on for a few more seconds! 🫶 I'm a slow reader and I'm not always able to pause the video 😅
<3
I have a question, why do you have to ask to eat the food youre making? Are you being held hostage or something? Lol
Cat: “hot stove? Never heard of her”
I see Claire slices the bun correctly, top to bottom, not idiotic side to side.
I've watched so many of your videos, but for some reason the one about hot dog buns made me the hungriest. I dont even care about the dogs, just give me the bread pls.
I’m a Yellow Mustard and dill relish person but the big one is i hate crappy cheap hotdogs. Lowest I’ll go is Oscar Myers all beef or Hebrew National for mainstream. Stuff like Bar-S, Ballpark, those weird red dyed ones are just gross. Squishy hotdogs are nasty. I also don’t like grilled because of the char and boiled are just gross. I like pan fried after a steam in some water.
Hot dogs and a bit of water in pan lid on, heat until water goes away, lid off and tighten the skin by pan frying.
Hotdogs are dessert now.
Those buns look so good! really craving for hot dogs😋
Mayo and hot sauce on hot dogs is heaven
Claire with the he's right behind me isn't he energy
Am I the only one who would have requested mayo? Haha maybe that’s a Latino thing but we had mayo to everything it seems
What brand hot dogs are those?
Watched the video Thursday, prepared the dough on Friday, and baked the buns today. Hot dog, they were good! Such wonderful flavor and texture. I made beer brats and used Inglehoffer Sweet Hot and caramelized onions for toppings . Thanks, Claire Bear.
Who’s not letting this women eat 😂😂 Claire begging an imaginary entity to let her eat
For hamburger buns, would you make any alterations besides shape? Looks delicious!
We need merch that has the silhouette of Claire bear and then floating around her, like how they edit in the end of every video, “mmm” floating around. I’d buy that.
The most cursed crossover would be this episode + Ordinary Sausage
You’re making my mouth water! Nothing like a good hot dog in the summer! Yum! ❤🌭
Harris, you're amazing. We see you. We love you. And just thank you so much for your amazing relationship with your amazing wife. So much joy comes from this channel!
Claire is the Bob Ross+Bill Nye of the food world
the way you can hear the hotdog snapppp.. so satisfyinggg !!!
Claire, you're going to cry tears of sorrow when one of your cats jumps directly onto your stove when it's on and it burns it's paws, the most sensitive part of their body after their whiskers. The 2nd cat jump directly up there but the heat was off.
I know it's cute and all, but the kitchen is a dangerous place. Teach them what the stove is and how to stay away from it
I love hot dogs so much; they're my last meal request. Claire's buns look fantastic. Will definitely give them a try.
I would love to know the brand of those
delicious-looking, giant frankfurters.
Makes me lose my appetite seeing the cats walking all over the counter tops.
Claire, can this recipe be doubled?
Love the idea of giving more attention to all components of a hot dog… but Claire, please don't call a hot dog a "dish".
Especially when there is no dishes in sight, hahaha.
JK, love your vids. Great work.
i wanna try these so much
I need to know what Claire has on tap 😅
Made these today for my family before going to an outdoor play, and my gosh, they were delicious!! My parents were in love with them! They're so pillowy and soft and so easy to make! I don't think we will be buying store buns anymore!😂
The ending 5-6 minutes are excellent! Best part of the video for sure 🙂 Claire describing food is fun to hear, spoken by a true lover of food
I really enjoy the show and your baking but the cat on the counter is truly un-appitizing.
Next cook book better be “Hot dog person”
mayo, mustard, smoked gouda and a pickle for me thanks
Why?
TBH, I prefer my hot dogs plain if they're good quality hot dogs. I save the toppings for the cheaper dogs.
Follow up: made these buns today but used them for "lobster" (actually chunks of Argentine Red Shrimp-cheaper and similar flavor) rolls. A+, would recommend. Normal buns are a forgettable part of a dish like this. These buns stand out, in a damn good way.
Your videos are very comforting! I hope you know that!
Love the cat! 😂
Beautiful ep! Jumped right in making my own buns- dough is too sticky and look ugly/ misshapen- they taste ok! Never put ketchup on a hotdog- it’s is a culinary crime!
These look amazing! I love how you break down the recipes and truly make all of them one of a kind! I’ve tried so many of your bread recipes and I can really tell the difference in each one. I’d love to see your version of a hoagie roll recipe or a sturdy sandwich bun for cheesesteaks or deli sandwiches. Love your videos thanks, Claire!
Do you know if the buns would still be good to put in the freezer?
