On the advice of a friend in the states, I tried a new method for my burgers. The results are so good I need to share this.
For each kg of venison, add 10g salt, 2tsp ground black pepper, 2tbsp potato starch, and 220ml cold water.
That's it. No pork fat, breadcrumbs, egg, or whathaveyou. Just 100% venison. The texture is very open, with a superb moisture level, and the flavour of the venison is prominent, with just a slight accent from the black pepper
These are hand-formed, but I intend to experiment and see how they turn out from a press. I also think it'd be neat to mess around with flavour profiles such as garlic, Worcestershire, etc.
I highly recommend this method!
