8 жыл бұрынMy take on the bopNgrill's Umami burger. Saw this on Diners Drive Ins and Dives and man am I glad I decided to do this!
bopNgrill on FB: bopNgrill-24...
Ballistic Griddle: craycort cast iron grate
Togarashi Seasoning: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
Bonito Flakes: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
Duxelles Recipe:
1/8 cup pork fat
1/8 cup unsalted butter
1/2 large sweet onion sliced in 1/4" strips
1/4 cup fine minced garlic
24oz minced portabello mushrooms
2 tbs (healthy pinch) Dried bonito shavings
1 1/2 tsp anchovy dashi
Salt and pepper to taste
Truffle oil
Melt pork fat and butter in skillet. Add onion and cook until it starts to become somewhat translucent. Salt and pepper.
Add garlic and continue cooking until garlic gets that translucent look.
Add bonito flakes and dashi, still well.
Add mushrooms and stir into the mix.
Cook until most of the water from the mushrooms is gone and the mixture thickens.
Drizzle with truffle oil and stir.

The extent that the greediest of the greedy will use to try to impose their greed and to enhance their assumed importance is alarming sometimes. I still have a bottle of that killer Alaskan Umami sauce, and I ain't afraid to use it, despite some bully company's greed. You've raised the bar to lofty heights in the Burger universe yet again, Greg!

That is a beautiful knife & an amazingly yummy looking burger... I had some dried mixed mushrooms that I got a Costco & wanted to use more of, so i ground them in my spice grinder(coffee grinder used only for spices like toasted whole cumin & such)... i add about 1/2 tsp "Umami" mushroom powder, 1/4tsp ground toasted cumin, 1/4tsp garlic powder, 1tsp kosher salt, 1/4tsp black pepper, and about 1/4tsp (3 dashes) Worcestershire or A1 to every 1 lb of 80/20 for my burgers... Cook in cast iron or on grill or even sous vide... Super yummy, give it a try...

What really annoys me about things like this is the big company knows that the little guy can't afford to fight them in court even if they are likely to win, so they know there's a good chance the little guy will fold and give them what they want, even if they have no legal reason to. Thanks for drawing attention to it and, as always, that is a really tasty looking burger!

I worked for Umami Burger for about one week, the hours were too much for me on top of school, but now that I know they tried doing that, I'll avoid going there. That's a load of BS! Anyway, I do know that their ketchup comes to the restaurant already prepared, but they then blend it with truffle oil. Granted I don;t respect what they're doing with trying to make that term untouchable, I won't deny that their meat is clean and quality! Great video, as always. Cheers brotha!

Duxelles on a burger with sun dried tomatoes, that I can get behind. Although, I'd mix the bacon into the burger patty and substitute the anchovy dashi with minced fillets. This is way better than that burger from that one place in LA which I can't name. Why does anyone have to make a claim on a word? Why can't we just all relax and enjoy the amazing things SoCal has to offer?
@BallisticBBQ 8 жыл бұрын
Yeah... They need to focus on their food and customers. The crazy thing is Umami basically means savory... Like you said, it's a word! I could understand if a restaurant tried to call themselves the same thing, but it's perfectly appropriate to name a dish using the word, Umami. Thanks for watching and the comment!
