For a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender to blend the sauce after simmering, before adding the cornstarch slurry.
If you don't have ground hot dogs, you can pulse regular hot dogs in a food processor until finely ground.
This sauce freezes exceptionally well. Store in airtight containers for up to 3 months. Thaw completely before reheating.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the level of spiciness.
For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of tomato paste to the simmering sauce.
