20,000 Hot Dogs Produced Every Day! The Endless Transformation of K-Hot Dogs
Okdu Food (옥두식품)
Hot dogs are one of Korea’s most popular snacks, loved by both children and adults.
Easy to hold, convenient to eat, and perfect for a busy day, the Korean-style hot dog has become a familiar snack enjoyed by people of all ages.
Today, we visit Okdu Food, a busy hot dog factory located in Hoengseong, Gangwon Province, where an astonishing 20,000 hot dogs are produced every day!
The Secret Behind Okdu Food’s K-Hot Dogs
The production process begins with the batter, one of the most important elements determining the taste and texture of a Korean hot dog.
First, sugar and powdered egg are whipped together to create a light mixture and improve the texture.
Flour, starch, and other ingredients are then carefully measured and blended to create a soft batter with a fluffy, bread-like texture.
Precise measurements are essential because the consistency of the batter can significantly affect the quality of the finished hot dog.
Coating the Sausages Takes Experience
Once the batter is ready, sausages on sticks are evenly coated with the mixture and then covered with breadcrumbs before being placed into the fryer.
But coating a sausage properly is not as simple as it might look.
If too much batter is applied, the hot dog becomes too thick. If the coating is uneven, holes can appear during production.
That’s why experienced workers with more than 10 years of expertise use carefully controlled wrist movements to apply just the right amount of batter to each sausage.
It’s a skilled process built on years of hands-on experience.
Fried at Around 170°C for Seven Minutes
After coating, the hot dogs are placed into the fryer.
They are cooked at approximately 170°C (338°F) for around seven minutes, creating the familiar golden exterior and soft, fluffy texture inside.
And that’s how Okdu Food produces delicious Korean-style hot dogs on a massive scale.
With approximately 20,000 hot dogs produced every day, the factory stays busy from start to finish.
