I am not good cook but I have so much passion for eating... I don't really like cooking i would prefer to eat outside that to prepare my own meals when i was still working, the reason is because we usually end our ship at 12 noon so there was no time to prepare for lunch. I envy those people who have great passion for cooking, those people who can create their own recipe and still come up with good results... I can also cook when nobody is around and I really need to cook but I am usually not satisfied with my cooking... Once day my mom and i bought hotdog waffle maker, i was able to convince her because she observe how i love to eat waffles... I also bought blender to make corn shakes or buko shakes... I tried to google recipes for cooking waffle but most of them are not for hotdog waffles... Can anyone give me suggestions on how to create hotdog waffle, do I need to fry or boild the hotdog first before putting it into the waffle iron?

I think you should try making various recipes from Southindian dishes to Northindian dishes and you will love testing various food from various places and various countries.

I cook hotdogs in the oven to eliminate using oil. Then the batter that I use is the one for hotcakes. And since, I do not have a waffle maker, I just roll the hotcake with the hotdog inside until it looks like a waffle.

As far as hotdogs n their related recipes are concerned i dont have much knowledge about them. I love them just ready to eat frm the market rather than try smthing with them myself. Bt when it comes to simple cooking like simple meals may b soups or noodles or fried rice , m upto the task. I dnt really love cooking bt I can manage on my own.. This i can say as i have learned cooking on my own when i left home for higher studies . I made my meals on my own. Starting frm a bad cook i have managed to become an average cook..

I prepare all my own meals at home. I do not cook, however, as I'm 100% raw vegan organic. I used to be terrible with burning things, but now I don't have to worry about that! If I leave my salad marinate too long long, it just tastes even better! And if I leave it longer still, well, I just get to see how fermented foods taste! You can run a search on Raw Vegan Hotdog Waffles if you want to know how to make something different, healthier & lighter.

I never tried cooking waffles but I do have a passion for cooking though like you, I also don't have enough time to cook due to a busy schedule. On the other hand, I cook as much as I can every time I get the chance like when there's a long weekend coming up or I arrived home early. With regards to fry or boil the hotdog first, I think you don't really need to cook them before as they cook easily even with the slightest heat. Hence, the hotdogs will be cooked once you put them in the waffle iron.

Nope, cooking is not a passion of mine. I have never been good in the kitchen. The recipes have to be very easy with basic ingredients lol My husband is an ok cook though and he does most of the main meals at home.!

Food - I like to prepare food
I am not so good in cooking and my mother or wife will do all the cooking.I can prepare tea ,rice and some curries.I think cooking is an art and girls are more expert in this field.For me food prepared by my mother is more tastier than anything.

You do not need to pre cook hot dogs as they are already cooked when packaged. They are really just reheated. That said what is a waffle hot dog? this is a new one for me. I do love to cook. It was a chore when I was a kid. I had to cook for myself and family each day while the grown ups worked. We lived with my aunt and her family. I did all the cooking by age 12. My cousin and sister call me to walk them through cooking all the time. I am good at it and that was born of necessity. I do create mostly my own recipes. I think it is because I get bored easy my cousin says it's my rebellious side, I just can't follow what anyone else says about anything.

Although I did not have any professional training in cooking, I would say that cooking is my passion. Imused to be totally insecure when it comes to cooking but when you need to cook already, say you got married and your husband expects and prefers that you, instead of the househelp cook, then you don't have a choice but to cook. I am now more confident to the point that whatever ingredients younplace in front of me, I can make a good tasting food..that is a lot healthier too. The onlynthing that you need to make good in making a waffle is the dough or the waffle itself. The fillingsmincludingnyour choice of hotdog is just an addional you don't need a recipe for that.

A waffle is not a shake, its a form of bread. You can of course make your own read - flour, water, yeast, but a lot of mixing and kneading, or you can buy a bun. Boil a can of hotdogs, boil your corn, put in your bread bun, serve.

I do not like cooking very much but I like to cook food for my son and husband, if only myself at home, I just make food very simple, but maybe that's Chinese woman's nature, I can make food delicious, to prepare lunch will need about 1-2 hours, but I'm happy to see they eat the food quickly.
