Hamburg
A hamburger without the "er"? Forget about the bun, the sliced onion, the bacon, the Cheddar, the grilled mushrooms et cetera, et cetera. What we're talking here is the Japanese version, and it's fantastic. Yes, hamburg was influenced by American hamburgers and became popular when the Yanks administered Japan after World War II. But this particular patty is served on a plate with a tangy-ketchup based sauce on top, sans bun. And it's made with both ground beef and ground pork, panko crumbs, and surprise - milk. It's always cooked well done (because of the pork). And guess what? It's incredibly juicy, thanks to the milk and panko, and incredibly tasty, thanks to the mixture of meat and that amazing reduction sauce. Steamed white rice on the side is a must.
