HEMINGWAY'S FAVORITE BURGER



Hemingway's Favorite Burger image

Digitally released by the JFK Presidential Library 2/11/14. I found it on this BBC article: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-magazine-monitor-26160596 It is also posted on the JFC Presidential Library Facebook page 2/11/14: https://www.facebook.com/JFKLibrary It is interesting to see Mary Hemingway's special instructions scribbled in the margins. The original recipe specified Spice Island Mei Yen Powder which is no longer available so I have replaced that with the components of salt, sugar and MSG. These are whopping 8 oz burgers....I might make them smaller. If you do, adjust the cooking time.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 13m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb lean ground beef
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 little green onions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon india relish
2 tablespoons capers
1 teaspoon sage (his specified Spice Island)
1/2 teaspoon beau monde seasoning (also specified Spice Island or Beau Monde Seasoning/Spice Mix if you can't find that)
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash msg (I consider this optional)
1 egg, beaten in a cup with a fork
1/3 cup dry wine (red or white)
1 tablespoon cooking oil

Steps:

  • Break up the meat with a fork and scatter the garlic, onion and dry seasonings over it, then mix them into the meat with a fork or your fingers.
  • Let the bowl of meat sit out of the icebox for ten or fifteen minutes while you set the table and make the salad.
  • Add the relish, capers, everything else including wine and let the meat sit, quietly marinating, for another ten minutes if possible.
  • Now make your fat, juicy patties with your hands. The patties should be an inch thick, and soft in texture but not runny.
  • Have the oil in your frying pan hot but not smoking when you drop in the patties and then turn the heat down and fry the burgers about four minutes.
  • Take the pan off the burner and turn the heat high again.
  • Flip the burgers over, put the pan back on the hot fire, then after one minute, turn the heat down again and cook another three minutes.
  • Both sides of the burgers should be crispy brown and the middle pink and juicy.
  • Time does not include sitting times.
