Yummy Piggy Wraps (Homemade Corn dogs)

Yummy Piggy Wraps

If you are a fan of store-bought corn dogs, then you will absolutely adore my delicious piggy wraps recipe. My husband even claims that my recipe tastes just like the ones you find in the store. I encourage you to give it a try and experience the true deliciousness for yourself!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of dry pancake mix (homemade or store-bought)

  • About 1/4 cup of water, plus a little more if needed

  • 1 (8-count) package of weiners

  • 1/2 cup canola oil for frying

Instructions:

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of dry pancake mix with 1/4 cup of water. Mix well and knead the dough until it reaches the right consistency. If the dough is too dry, add a little more water until it comes together without being too sticky or wet.

Roll the dough into a log shape and cut it into 8 equal segments.

At this point, I patted and shaped each segment of dough into long rectangular shapes with my hands. I didn't use any flour to do this part. The dough segments should be just a little bit longer than each weiner, and it needs to be wide enough to wrap around the entire width of the weiner. After wrapping the dough around each weiner, I molded the dough around each end and then rolled each wrapped weiner with my fingers on a clean glass plate to seal the dough completely.

Heat 1/2 cup of canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot and bubbling.

Fry the piggy wraps in batches, cooking three at a time to ensure there is enough space in the skillet to brown all sides of the dough.

Once the dough is golden brown, remove the piggy wraps from the oil and drain any excess on a paper towel-lined plate.

Serve and enjoy!

Note:

Below is the ingredients for my homemade pancake mix recipe:

  • 2 cups of self-rising flour

  • 2 tablespoons of Splenda or sugar Add more if you prefer your pancakes to be sweeter.

  • 2 cups of powdered milk

  • 1/4 teaspoon of no-salt substitute, or salt

Prepare the pancake mix in advance and store it in Mason jars or Ziploc bags.

American pokeweed

American pokeweed  American pokeweed is a perennial, and it's commonly known as a survivalist plant. The plant is often referred to as poke salad, poke sallet, pokeweed, poke, among a few others. During the first days of spring, purplish shoots of pokeweed emerge from the soil. The plant will often pop up as a volunteer, and depending on the location, pokeweed can grow anywhere from 6 feet to 20 feet tall. The stalks and stems of pokeweed are an attractive purplish plum color. The leaves are a beautiful green color, and they can grow as big as 14 inches long by 7 to 8 inches wide. The plant's leaves will be tapered at each end. By summer, pokeweed begins producing long clusters of green and white flowers. The flowers turn into green berries that then transition from a light pink to a dark plum color. Pokeweed grows flowers and berries often at the same time and will continue to grow until the first frost. I have never pulled a pokeweed plant up from its roots, but I

Why I Don't Preheat My Oven Before Cooking"

"Why I Don't Preheat My Oven Before Cooking" In this article, I aim to shed light on my unconventional approach to cooking by explaining the reasons behind why I choose not to preheat my oven. While this may seem like a peculiar practice to some, I assure you that there are valid reasons behind it that I will explore in the following sections. Safety Considerations: Addressing concerns about food safety and doneness Ensuring proper internal temperature: Using a food thermometer One of the common concerns when it comes to skipping preheating is whether the food will cook evenly and reach a safe internal temperature. However, I have found that using a food thermometer effectively eliminates this concern. By inserting a thermometer in the thickest part of the dish, I can ensure that it reaches the recommended temperature for doneness. This method not only guarantees food safety but also prevents overcooking. Adhering to recommended cooking times for specific foods Another mi
