No guessing after which city everyone’s favourite Friday takeout the Hamburger was named, but in which country this city is, remains a mystery!
The city's name of course is Hamburg, but there are two cities called Hamburg and both lay claim to being the very first to sell a Hamburger; Hamburg in Germany and Hamburg in New York, USA!
With all the Hamburger franchises spread out all over the world like Mc Donald's, Burger King and many more, I don’t think there’s anyone who has never eaten a Burger; or am I mistaken?
Traditionally a Hamburger consists of a patty made with ground meat, placed inside a bun and loaded with all kinds of:
Accompaniments
- Lettuce, Tomato, Cheese, Onion, Pickles, Bacon, Pineapple, Egg…the list is endless!
Topped with
Condiments:
- Ketchup, Mayonnaise, Mustard, Relish, Thousand Island Dressing, Burger Sauce…etc…etc.
Served with:
Potato Chips
Loaded with carbs, but who cares as it's Friday night!
This was a traditional Beef Burger with a Blue Cheese Sauce that I made a long while back for @jaybird's Sandwich Contest on the good old, bad new, Steemit.
However...for today's @qurator's Hive Top Chef! | Hamburgers! I’ll be making a different kind of Burger.
This one is Ovo-Vegetarian and I'm sure some of our star Vegan Chefs will know how to turn it into a Vegan version.
@lizelle however was in a hurry, as always, so didn't want to take a chance as this patty may just have fallen apart without eggs from Mother Hen.
I further chose brown Bread Squares rather than regular burger buns; can you see me biting into that massive Beef Burger above?
