Turkey Sliders

No reviews yet

Turkey is probably the most American of meats, but when it comes to the most American sandwich (the burger), beef trumps turkey due to the presence of umami, the flavor associated with glutamic acid. By adding three umami-centric ingredients — Parmesan cheese, mushrooms, and miso — you can make ground turkey into a burger you'll actually want to eat.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make the savory Greek yogurt dip: Combine the yogurt, parsley, mint, cumin, lemon zest, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Transfer to an airtight container, cover, and refrigerate for up to 10 days.

  2. Make the sliders: Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat, then add the olive oil, mushrooms, and salt. Saute until the mushrooms are soft and golden, approximately 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

  3. Thoroughly combine the turkey, Parmesan, miso, and cooled mushrooms using a potato masher, or, better yet, your fingers. Divide the mixture into balls a little bigger than the size of a ping-pong ball. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.I usually do this overnight.
