Sooner or later, even the most diehard holiday fans hit capacity on leftovers. There’s only so much turkey sandwiches, brisket hash, or ham dip one can take.
For them, and for those who don’t care about the centerpiece protein in the first place, consider an unexpected, post-holiday-splurge dish: a fully loaded South American hot dog, courtesy of Virgilio Martinez.
Martinez might seem an unlikely hot dog champion. His Lima restaurant, Central, is a fixture in the upper echelons of the World’s 50 Best list; this year it was No. 4, and it was named the restaurant of the decade in Latin America. His dishes spotlight local ingredients to such an extent that menus include the altitudes where they can be found, such as a dish called Low Andes Mountains (1,800 meters), comprised of quinoa and dried cow’s heart.
His new project, The Latin American Cookbook (Phaidon; $50), compiles 600 recipes from 22 countries throughout the continent thanks to “historians, writers, field cooks,” he wrote in an e-mail. “Hundreds of hours of walking and spending time in the place of origin, where we see and listen to people where they cook.”
The surprise star? Humble hot dogs.
In Venezuela, they are called perros; in Guatemala, shucos; and in Chile, completos. Wherever they are, their generous garnishes set them apart from American versions. “The one uniting factor among all of them is that they are usually so overloaded with toppings that it can be hard to find the meat,” writes Martinez.
What makes the Chilean version—or any of the hot dog recipes—a great post-holiday dish is, for one thing, it’s supremely easy to prepare. It’s also a great culinary change of conversation from traditionally more mellow flavors.
And if you’re looking to eat less meat, the recipes are also a great vehicle for plant-based hot dogs and sausages. The full recipe follows.

Remembering Stephen Sondheim
On Friday, the world lost a legend. Stephen Sondheim’s quick-witted lyrics made Broadway audiences sit up and listen in the 1950s and his cerebral, ground-breaking shows from “Company” in 1970 to “Merrily We Roll Along” more than a decade later thrust the American musical into the modern era. He died at his home in Roxbury, Conn., at the age of 91.
Tributes quickly flooded social media as performers and writers alike mourned the man and his genius. Here’s a look back at the brilliant perfectionism, humility, and magic that made him a giant of the theater.
