The perfect cooking of the beef burger
The beef hamburger is one of the symbols of American cuisine, but its origins are much more distant. It is said that the term "hamburger" comes from the city of Hamburg, Germany, where immigrants brought with them a patty of minced and seasoned meat that would later become the modern hamburger. Introduced to the United States in the 19th century, the hamburger quickly won the hearts (and stomachs) of the entire world, becoming an icon of fast food and home cooking.
Today, however, the hamburger can be much more than just a quick meal. When prepared with quality meat and cooked to perfection, it is a tasty and satisfying culinary experience. The secret? A meat already expertly seasoned, ready to cook, without the need to add anything.
INGREDIENTS:
- Beef burger already stuffed;
- Extra virgin olive oil.
PREPARATION:
-
Meat preparation : Use perfectly seasoned beef burgers, prepared with the right blend of spices and salt to ensure maximum flavor. No need to add salt or pepper: the seasoning is already ideally dosed to enhance the quality of the meat.
-
Cooking : Heat a griddle or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to prevent the meat from sticking and, when the griddle is very hot, place the burgers on it. Cook each side for about 4 minutes if you want medium rare, or a couple minutes more for a well-done burger.
-
Flipping the burger : Use a spatula to flip the burger halfway through cooking, being careful not to squash the meat, as this will cause the precious juices that keep the meat tender and juicy to escape.
-
Resting the meat : Once cooked, remove the burger from the heat and let it rest for a couple of minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the burger, ensuring a perfect bite-size consistency.
-
Serving : The burger, already tasty thanks to the default seasoning, can be served directly as it is, or inserted into a bun with your favorite ingredients, such as cheese, salad or sauces.
ENJOY YOUR MEAL!
Thanks to a clever mix of seasonings and proper cooking, the already stuffed beef burger is ready to surprise everyone with its intense flavor and perfect juiciness. Simple, fast and irresistible, it is the ideal choice for those who want a tasty dish without complications.
