Also toast the bun.

It kind of blows my mind the number of 'sandwich & pattie' situations in which the cooks don't toast the buns. It almost always helps.

I was at a BBQ a year ago, I said to the "chef" to toast the buns and he looked at his dad in confusion, his dad shrugged and said "I dunno."

I then asked him if he liked toast, to which he obviously said yes. Anyway he toasted the buns and was an immediate convert.

I think it's a situation where they haven't encountered it before. We can teach them to do better! Imagine a world of toasted buns..

Nice one!

I do get that sometimes you don't want to mess too much with the softness of the bread, as it can kind of highlight the contrast in interior ingredients, whatever they might be.

Me, I don't have any kind of toaster myself, but use my range's spiral elements to toast (or grill) as needed. The problem is consistency, so next time I think I might try the air fryer out, instead. Brushing with a little oil first usually helps, but we'll see...

There used to be a restaurant near me that served their patty melts with a ton of parmesan cheese on the outside of the bread like that. There's salty savory tang added by grilled sharp cheese is fantastic!

(Not that you need me to tell you ๐Ÿ˜‰)

It's also delicious. Make the patties however you want, bread crumbs and eggs helps heaps. Then I sear on one side for 4 minutes with high heat to make it cripsy, flip and spread grated cheese on the seared size. Pan lid goes on to make sure the cheese gets enough heat. 4-6 minutes or until the cheese is gooey, then flip again and cook for a further 4-6 minutes until the cheese is as shown. Nom nom, and nom!

My cholesterol levels spiked just by looking at the delicious food.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Cholesterol isn't bad, as I've heard. ๐Ÿ‘

My health insurance and my doctor beg to differ. Letโ€™s see how many years it takes them to correct course.

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

The current health situation is so bad, because people confuse correlation with causation in so many studies.

Like one study that is saying bad teeth health can be a cause for heart problems. But maybe, just maybe, poor oral health is an indicator for heart problems, because it is probably the symptom of eating lots of sugar, which leads to a lot of heart problems.

Shit like this seems to be ubiquitous throughout the field of health and biology. They need a better understanding of dependent variables and statistics.

You let the cheese melt over the edge of the burger and mix with the burger drippings in the pan, and then put that melty mix back in the burger at the end.
