Subj : 12/21 Hamburger Day - 4 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sun Dec 19 2021 22:10:08 December 21 - National Hamburger Day MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Hamburger A La Lindstrom Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Dairy Yield: 4 Servings 500 g Ground beef 2 Egg yolks 100 ml Cream 100 g Fine chopped onions 150 ml Fine chopped pickled red - beets 100 ml Liquid from the pickled - beets (or less) 2 tb Fine chopped capers Butter for frying Salt & pepper The origin of this dish is not entirely clear. Most believe that it was introduced by Captain Henrik Lindstro:m (1831-1910) at Hotell Witt in Kalmar, Sweden, in the 1860s. Others suggest that the originator was Maria Kristina Lindstro:m, who operated a delicatessen in Stockholm at about the same time. Whoever the originator, it is now almost a national dish in Sweden. Mix ground beef, egg yolks, and cream in a bowl. Season. Add enough liquid from pickled beets to produce a dough-like mixture. Saute the chopped onion until translucent but not colored. Add to the beef mixture. Gently stir in pickled beets and capers. Some (but not we!) even like to add 100-150 g boiled and mashed potatoes. Shape into four round patties, about the same size as a BigMac. Melt some butter in a frying pan. Fry the beef patties at moderate/low heat for 3-5 min. It is important that they remain rosy inside, otherwise they will be too dry. * Origin - Lost in the Supermarket * Another Michael Loo Short Subject Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
