Can a Vegan Hot Dog Snap? | Eater
"A Minneapolis vegan butcher founded in 2014 by Kale Walch and his sister that demonstrates plant-based hot dogs can approach the desirable snap: Walch notes alginate-based casings and careful cooking can produce a satisfying crisp, but cautions these casings are finicky (prone to tearing, plasticky outcomes, and strict handling rules), and he continues to tweak recipes to balance realistic texture with a distinct, enjoyable plant-based identity." - Bettina Makalintal
