The world's best burgers

A burger is an ingenious concept: a whole meal where all tastes, textures, smells and colors, yes, everything that makes up a burger, are gathered on a very small area between the hot under- and over-boil. There is a reason why burgers are eaten anywhere in the world. In recent years, fast food has come out of the corner of shame – this is perhaps because so many cafes and restaurants have embraced the burger and experiment on all fronts with good ingredients and interesting compositions. But why not make the burger yourself from scratch, along with family and friends? The inspiration for this book comes from many places in the world, and as it will show, a burger doesn’t always have to be accompanied by meat. In fact, there is a lot of emphasis on green burgers, which may surprise most people. Suggestions are given for vegetarian, insect, fish, shellfish and meat burgers – all spiced with imaginative and exciting fillings and accessories that are easy to go to and easy to make. A total of 60 recipes for burgers and 125 recipes for fillings and accessories. Examples from the book are: – Beetroot burger with horseradish cream, elderflower pickled red onions and feta – Lentil burger with truffle mayo, sweet potato and rye bread croutons – Flakes with cherry ketchup, blue cheese and rhubarb chutney – ostrich burger with pepper-relish, pistachio butter and deep-fried lotus root – Cod burger with kale pesto and cucumber salad – Scallop sliders with passion fruit cream and mango salsa – Pulled pork burger with Kentucky whiskey mayo, spicy okrapickles and cajun fried smoked oysters.
