White Castles Recipe
Ingredients:
12 Dinner Rolls (Parker house shape, 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" size)
1 pound lean ground beef (80% lean)
1/2 cup water (for beef)
1/2 teaspoon Salt
3/4 cup diced onions
1 beef bouillon cube
1/2 cup Water (for onions)
Dill Hamburger Slices
Directions:
In food processor place ground beef, salt and water. Process for a few seconds
so water and salt are blended through ground beef and meat should look a little
pasty. On a 11" x 13" jelly roll pan place plastic wrap on bottom. Place
hamburger in middle and with another piece of plastic wrap on top of meat. Roll
hamburger out to 1/4" thick. Remove plastic wrap and cut meat into 3" x
3"squares, leave ground beef pieces on tray. You should get between 12 and 14
squares. Perforate each piece five times with the end of a plastic straw, this
will give the meat little steam holes. Cover hamburger with plastic wrap and
place in freezer until meat is partially frozen but not solid.
Place onions, beef bouillon, and 1/2 cup water in fry pan. On medium low heat
sauté and stir onions until they are clear, more water may be added as needed.
Turn heat off until ready to cook hamburger patties.
When beef patties are ready to prepare, turn fry pan on medium low heat and add
enough water to onions just so the bottom of fry pan is covered. Place patties
in pan and cover with lid. Frying time is just a few moments. Turn patties and
cook until done but not dry. The patties should be juicy. When hamburgers are
finished cooking place on top of a roll add pickles, cover hamburgers so they
will steam slightly or pop in microwave covered just for a few seconds until
ready to serve.
