Cooking hamburgers is a separate culture and culinary trend. You can't just take any bun, pour sauce on it, add vegetables and a cutlet and call it a burger. Real burgers are an art that needs to be learned.
Pat LaFrieda, the man behind the world's most famous burgers, told Business Insider how to make the perfect burger at home. He gave three main tips for choosing meat, toppings, and buns.
Meat
According to LaFried, burger meat should always be bought from domestic producers. In this case, it will be the freshest. In addition, it is worth using farm meat, the animals for which were raised on natural grasses and grain.
The degree of frying of the hamburger cutlet should be medium. This is the only way to make it really juicy and tasty.
Sauce
The expert believes that the best sauce for a burger is mayonnaise supplemented with slices of small tomato. The tomato should be just the right size, because only then does it have the best flavor. He also always adds lettuce to the dish, but never onions, because they can spoil the taste of the whole burger.
Buns
LaFrieda claims that the best buns for hamburgers are brioche. It is this type of buns that creates not only the beautiful appearance of the dish, but also the first impression of it. The bun is the first thing that goes into your mouth when you taste a burger. It should have a pronounced flavor without reminding bread.
