Recipe Review

27th August 2011

Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT

Succulent and well flavored.

This is a fairly simple sautéed hamburger - meat flavored with salt, and pepper applied to the outside. Good instruction on how to sear the meat, and the time suggested led to a perfectly cooked patty.

The kicker comes at the end - dry vermouth is poured into the pan, swirled, and then poured over the meat.

I prepared these for my DH and son, and they disappeared really quickly. Might have rated it a "5" had I paired it with better bread (a good sourdough or rye would have been great).

This cookbook has languished among my collection for 28 years, and this year is the first I've tried any recipes. So far, I'm impressed.
