    I used a Joshua Weisman recipe for the burger but I used your method to make an Impossible Smash burger… your cooking instructions are spot on.
    If you want to change the toppings go ahead, but use this method for making the patties thin. I didn’t have a Dutch oven but I had a large pot that I filled 1/2 with water and it worked so good to press it down. After flipping I also put on cheese slices (I used real cheese, so not vegan) and then put a lid on the pan and 20 seconds later the burger is done and the cheese is melted. The actual cooking time is like 2 mins just like this video says, it turned out so good. Thank you for this method.
    I eat meat and I couldn’t tell it was impossible meat.

    The vegan cheese and special sauce were great! We made smash burgers with beef. Lol! They were good, too. I needed the dairy-free cheese. Joe’s visual example of vegan cheese was unfortunately spot on. I have searched for a good taste/texture substitute for cheese for quite a few years. We really enjoyed this cheese sauce; put it on the burger and dipped fries in the sauce, too. Thank you!!!!!

    I’m not vegan or vegetarian, but I can’t eat beef, so the Impossible burger is my go-to plant-based burger. For a flavorful variation on this burger, which is how I make them as well, I mix in the Impossible “spicy” sausage. It’s really not that spicy, but it makes it more interesting.

      I'm not vegetarian but my wife is. We cook Impossible pretty often since it makes it much easier to have enjoyable meals for the both of us! I think where it really shines is when it's used as just another component, instead of meat as the main star like in a burger or meatloaf. Tacos, meaty pasta sauces, Korean beef bowls, that sorta thing. We've surprised my dad when he didn't realize he was eating vegetarian.

    • @slw4738
      @slw4738 4 місяці тому +1

      Carbon steel & Cast Iron are not the same with reference to obtaining and maintaining a desirable (non-stick) cook surface. Carbon steel achieves non-stick each time you cook by heating oil to smoking prior to each use - think carbon steel wok. Check out Kenji’s discussion of proper carbon steel wok use.

    • @josephgitter
      @josephgitter 4 місяці тому +6

      There are lots of little dimples in cast iron and my suspicion is that they create so much more surface area for the food to stick. In addition, the meat itself is more tender and is more likely to fall apart. I imagine if you had a crazily well-seasoned pan, it would work but for safety we stuck to carbon steel or nonstick. The one I used at work was well seasoned and it still stuck.

      Yeahhhhh....impossible burgers may have some key vitamins and protein, they are also highly processed and full of saturated fat. If you buy ground beef and take the 5 minutes to pat them into burger shapes, you're literally just getting meat. The only "health" reason to choose an impossible burger is if you've been told to limit cholesterol, and even then...other plant-based burgers (like a black bean burger) are a better choice.

I used a flat griddle spatula and a second spatula to put pressure down on it to smear it. if I make 6-8 patties, only one usually fails and that's in the balling up process.

    Thank you ATK for your constant guidance in the kitchen on all levels.

It was the best veg burger I've ever had then or since, if someone would recreate that for me, please have at it. As far as what I have now? I suppose I prefer Impossible Burgers for vegetarian options as such. However, I heard that the ingredients are highly processed and as a result, inflammatory. Yes, better for the planet but personal health? I suppose the jury's still out. I've been eating pasture-raised organic ground beef that is well-priced at Aldi. I may revisit Impossible again to try out this recipe. I do have nutritional yeast that I know from experience makes a great cheese alternative sauce.

      Impossible isn't made to be a strictly healthier alternative to beef.

    One of my favorite things to do with the bricks of Impossible meat is to throw them fully frozen still on to a scorching hot grill. Seer the everliving heck out of every side (rotate and flip twice - stand on edges). Then I cube it into roughly one inch chunks and toss it into a chili, or toss it in a thick chipotle sauce (blended chipotle in adobo mostly) and toss it into a taco shell. Definitely going to stop buying the premade patties and just form thinner ones myself. Thanks for the tip.

      ...and eating less meat isn't good for humans either. Our bodies are not adapted to extract phyto-proteins from plants. Plant proteins are not well-assimilated by the body and, in fact, plant protein sources like soy contain anti-nutrients that bind to essential minerals and prevent our bodies from absorbing them. They also contain phyto-estrogens that create hormonal havoc in the body. Stay far away from these heavily processed products.

Much of their aversion to meat has to do with opposing the death of animals for consumption and yet, here they are eating fake foods that taste like animals. It's a bit hypocritical.
      As far as the environment goes, farming mass mono-crops like corn and soy over millions of acres does FAR more harm to the environment by destroying ecosystems and compacting, eroding, or stripping topsoil than any herd of cattle naturally grazing on the open plains like they've always done for tens of thousands of years. Perhaps you were referring to the Third World, but here in the First World the animals are not treated cruelly at the farms that are certified and inspected, which is 99% of them.
