Ärende: various burgers 60
==========================
 HN> There is something about a burger.

Didn't there use to be a song that went like that?

 HN> I'm right there with you, if I don't get
 HN> one for a week, I miss it,

Now that I think about it, I could eat burgers
every day. Of course, I could eat a steak every day.
For someone with a wide-ranging and experienced
palate, I'm easy to please.

 HN> It does not have to be a special $10 burger,

Agreed.

 HN> it does not have to be cooked slightly more rare

Agreed, but it must be cooked the way I ordered it.
If I order it rare, I expect it to be rare, unless
they say, oh, the county health department says that
we have to cook everything medium. In which case if
it comes medium-well, back it goes. If they said,
oh, the county health department says that we have to
cook everything medium-well, that would be okay: I'd
either go with that or order something else. 

 HN> From the White Castle belly bombs to
 HN> the fancy mega bux kobe (style) waygu
 HN> teryaki blue cheese with pepperjack
 HN> yada yada burger..it still comes to

I can't say I fully appreciate either of these, though
the Castleburgers have their odd mushy appeal.

 HN> some sort of spiritual meal that
 HN> everyone can feel is their own. 

Whoa, sounds as though you were talking about ginkgo
nuts or angel food cake or something. And all for a
piece of steer meat destroyed by a metal grinder!

      1    french roll; soaked in white
           -wine

Unfortunately the exact cooking temperatures and times haven't been handed
down in all cases. You have to rely on your gut feeling. But I hope you
enjoy all of it nonetheless!

Mix minced meat with the soaked french roll. Ground spices and mix into
the meat. Form small burgers and put pine kernels and peppercorns into
them. Put them into baking foil and grill them together with Caroenum.
