PORK & VEAL BURGER

Is anyone old enough to remember when hamburgers were made of ham? Were hamburgers EVER made of ham? Or did they simply come from Hamburg? Was Hamburg named after ham? Was there really a mountain made of ham? I'm asking a lot of questions. Could that be because I am reading The Interrogative Mood? Interesting concept, a book composed entirely of questions, don't you think? So here's a ham-free hamburger. In fact, there's not much here that resembles a hamburger - at least, not a McDonalds hamburger. But then a McDonalds hamburger doesn't resemble a proper hamburger - or real food, for that matter. This burger starts with a toasted Turkish bun, then slices of roasted beetroot, ripe heirloom tomatoes, Balsamic onions, Heidi gruyere, a pork and veal patty with smoked paprika and some baby spinach on the side. Delish.
