Burger--it is summertime


It is summer and, as if from instinct, I want burger. And, what do you know, lean beef is on sale in the local market. I keep the burger thick and cook it in a pan at medium-high heat with the lid on, flip a couple of times. When it is about 80% done, I spoon a teaspoon of truffle paste on top and then cover it with mozzarella. Put the lid back on and by the time the cheese melts nicely, it is done. Lettuce, tomato, vidalia onion inside a kaiser bun. A little Dijon mustard and tomato ketchup are all I need. So little truffle paste, so much flavour. No better burger anywhere.
