Mitsu here, I was working with my guildmates in the Domain of Kourna, its a lot of work to clean up after a hivemind overseer kicks the bucket, and I took an arrow from a jittery ex Inquest.
Like with Koss, not all Awakened and enslaved Asura wanted to be part of Joko's plans. Some of his top brass didn't want to be awakened, but were forced to. It won't be easy, but we can help them adjust to a free life, and for the enslaved Asura, if they are willing to leave the Inquest, we should be able to help them adjust to a new life.
After finally being able to return home to my Asuran Kitchen, I made myself some burgers. I had ground Slab of Red Meat left over from when I made the Krytan Meatball Dinner, so I made burger patties with that!
Cheeseburger
Let's start with the simple, a cheeseburger can be built on into any burger, its nice, its simple, its:
- 1 ground Slab of Red Meat
- 1 Loaf of Bread Sesame Seed Bun (a fresh bun is better in my opinion, but a Loaf of Bread is good for learning prototypes)
- slice of Cheese Wedge
For this, I made a Parmesan frico and put it on top of the burger. To make this, take a handful of Parmesan and put it in a frying pan, fry, flip, and top burger with your Parmesan frico cheese wedge slice!
For the patty itself, I shaped it by hand to be a circular patty, and then froze my extras. The ones I cooked fresh went straight into the pan.
flip burger once its formed a nice brown crust on the bottom, and press down with spatula. This maximizes cooking surface contact, helping to make a delicious crisp, and with the cheese inside the burger from our Meatballs, you will get a deliciously amazing burger.
To go with the umami flavours of the Parmesan, I also added soy sauce and rice vinegar to the pan while cooking, playing it up with those notes.
The Cheeseburger is like an almost blank canvas, dress it how you like, its only wrong if you don't!
Horseradish Burger
- 1 Sesame Seed Bun (Congratulations! You've graduated from the College of Cheeseburgers, now you don't have to use a Loaf of Bread!)
- 1 ground Slab of Red Meat
- 1 Horseradish Root, creamed and sauced
- 1 part of a Head of Lettuce (trust me, you don't want the whole thing, and mine was a first prototype, not yet in production)
Take your basic burger, slather or squirt some creamy horseradish onto it, and serve. Unless you're me, then melt cheddar into a slice and add that too!
Deluxe Burger
- 1 Sesame Seed Bun
- 1 ground Slab of Red Meat
- 1 part of a Head of Lettuce (do I have to explain myself again?)
- 1 sliced Tomato, vine ripened or Roma, not hothouse or beefsteak (trust me on this, its a much better flavour)
Top burger with a part of a Head of Lettuce and Tomato slices. I like to add cheese, but as before, you can't go wrong if you dress it as you like.
I made a cheddar cheese slice by using a similar technique to the frico. Once the cheddar had melted, I took the pan off the stove, and stuck it on the biggest metal heat dissipator I had, shaped it with my spatula, and placed it on the burgers once cooled. Similar techniques can be used with different cheese, but you need to adjust based on moisture content, age, and other factors.
The Finished burger pair can be seen here. I also added a bit of mayo and barbecue sauce to my Deluxe Burger. After almost a decade and hundreds of prototypes, I finally achieved a perfect Deluxe Burger, never in my life have I had a burger that good. Just one more step in understanding the Eternal Alchemy as a Chef and Kitchen commander.
For those wondering, I set my cheese slices on an aluminum sheet while I finished the burgers. Here's what they looked like!

Sorry for the delays, problems on both sides of the Mists kept me out of action for a bit. As an ongoing student and mentor at the College of Synergetics, sometimes it is difficult to get everything done.
ReplyDeleteI have a rare disease, and it certainly complicates things. Tiami is amazing, maybe someday my krewe will work on treatments for my illness, similar to how Scruffy helps with hers.
