Recipe Instructions

Whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, corn flour, salt, pepper, egg, oil and seltzer in a large bowl. Insert a wooden skewer in each hot dog, then dust the hot dogs with flour. Roll or dip them in the batter so that they're totally coated.

Heat 1 inch of oil in a large wok or cast-iron skillet to about 375 degrees. Cook a couple of corn dogs at a time until they are lightly browned, turning them over, about 4 to 5 minutes. Drain them on paper towels and repeat with the remaining hot dogs. Serve these with mustard for dipping.

This recipe yields 10 corn dogs.
