I think the Dijon mustard, as opposed to the sweet ballpark variety, benefits from a little ketchup. I remember 30 years ago I used to enjoy making hamburgers in Paris using ultra-lean French <i>biftek haché</i> with Dijon mustard, ketchup, and sliced <i>cornichons</i>.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-52543307833238821752013-11-17T20:22:56.646+01:002013-11-17T20:22:56.646+01:00It's a baseball/Chicago thing.

Mustard, onions, relish, sport peppers, celery salt.<br /><br />From Wikipedia:<br />The canonical recipe does not include ketchup, and there is a widely-shared, strong opinion among many Chicagoans and aficionados that ketchup is unacceptable. A number of Chicago hot dog vendors do not offer ketchup as a condiment.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170098781777190491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-1739110310479918012013-11-17T20:15:50.961+01:002013-11-17T20:15:50.961+01:00Hi Cjeryl, So ketchup is a religious issue?

I buy it in the US and take it back. But I have to admit the buns I buy at my local (not-a-chain)grocery store are the best I have ever eaten. They are made in-store and are sold unsplit. I have never tried to make my own. Thanks for including the recipe.
