Orange ginger sesame burger with roasted veggies.

Making:

Orange ginger sesame burger with roasted veggies.

1 serving prepared 

Here's what I have:



Burger and topping mix:

1 tsp Orange Ginger Spice blend 
2 tsp Scallion whites 
1/2 tsp Concentrated beef stock 
1 tsp Ginger paste 
2 tbsp Tamari Gluten-free pretzel crumbs
1 tsp honey 

The rest: 

5 oz Ground pork 

2 tbsp Sesame seed 
1/4 cup White onion 
1/4 cup Russet potato 
1/4 cup Carrot 

Scallion greens 

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

The ingredients for the topping and burger mix were placed in a food processor and blend it until well-mixed. Half will go into the patty and half to the topping.

The patty:

1 tbsp of sesame seeds, gf crumbs and half of the mix was added to the ground pork. A patty was formed and set aside.  The potatoes and carrots were drizzled in avocado oil and baked 425 degrees for 25 minutes. 

When the vegetables hit the 15-minute Mark of cooking I got a non-stick skillet hot and cooked the burger for 5 minutes each side setting to the side to rest while finishing the topping.

The topping: 

To make the topping I put the rest of the white onions in the non-stick pan and cooked them until they were starting to go clear. The rest of the burger topping/mix was addedand allowed to reduce. Six minutes was the total cook time for this. 

During plating added the rest of the sesame seeds and the shallot greens.

The plate!


I kinda went ham with the sesame seeds during plating. Not sorry. As an alternative orange jam and powdwered or fresh ginger could be used. This would omit the need for honey.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter.  I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature.  The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot.  The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter.  Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
