Hamburger Seasoning - Add Fab Taste
to Your Homemade Burgers and Patties

A quality hamburger seasoning recipe is just the thing for the home burger and sausage maker! And this easy-to-make blend of herbs and spices is just perfect for adding superb flavours and mouthwatering aromas to your ground pork recipes.

What You'll Need: (makes about 8 tablespoons)

2 tbsp fennel seeds
2 tbsp black peppercorns
2 tbsp dried rosemary
2 tbsp dried sage
1 tbsp paprika powder
1 tbsp cumin seeds
2 tsp chili powder (hot or mild)
2 tsp sumac powder (optional)
2 tsp salt
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder

tbsp = tablespoon
tsp = teaspoon

Directions:

Coarsely grind the dried rosemary, salt, peppercorns, cumin and fennel seeds

Once ground add to a bowl

Now add the paprika, chili, onion, garlic powders and, if using, the sumac powder to the bowl and combine

Finally, crumble in the dried sage and combine well

Store your hamburger seasoning mix in an airtight jar out of direct sunlight and in a cool place. Use within 6 months before making a fresh amount.

Note: Dry toasting the peppercorns, cumin and fennel seeds before grinding will add even more flavours and aromas to your finished blend and therefore to your homemade burgers and patties.

Seasoning Note: I suggest 2 heaped tablespoons of seasoning for each pound of meat. So this recipe is enough for about 4 pounds of ground meat. If you're cooking more meat you can always double or treble the quantities of each ingredient in the above recipe.
