17/11/2023

To prepare succulent beef burgers with soy mayonnaise, you’ll need to combine quality meat with flavors that enrich the taste. Here is the list of ingredients and the procedure.

Ingredients

For the burgers:

  • 500 g of ground beef (preferably from flavorful cuts like shoulder or neck)
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • 1 finely chopped garlic clove
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • Lettuce, tomato, and onion to taste

For the soy mayonnaise:

  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon of mustard
  • 200 ml of vegetable oil or another mild oil
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • Salt
  • A pinch of sugar (optional)

Preparation

  1. For the burgers: In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with soy sauce, chopped garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir well to evenly flavor the meat.

  2. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and form patties, being careful not to overwork the meat to maintain the right texture.

  3. Cook the burgers on a hot grill or non-stick frying pan for about 3-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness and how you prefer the meat to be cooked.

  4. For the soy mayonnaise: While the meat is cooking, prepare the mayonnaise. In a bowl, put the egg yolk and mustard, begin to whisk with a whisk or use an immersion blender.

  5. Add the oil very slowly, starting with a few drops and increasing to a thin stream once the mayonnaise starts to thicken, without ever stopping whisking.

  6. Incorporate the soy sauce, adjust the salt, and if you desire a slightly sweeter note, you can add a pinch of sugar.

  7. Assemble your burger by placing the bottom of the bun, then the beef burger, followed by lettuce, tomato, and onion, and add a generous spoonful of soy mayonnaise on top of the meat before closing with the top part of the bun.

Curiosity

Soy mayonnaise is a fusion between the West and the East. Soy sauce adds an umami touch, enhancing the complexity of the flavor of traditional mayonnaise and pairing perfectly with the richness of the beef.

Remember that you can further customize your burger by adding ingredients like cheddar cheese or crispy bacon. Enjoy your meal!
