Beta Burgers April 27, 2006

Posted by admin in : Raw, Recipes , add a comment

They are called Beta Bergers because of the high amount of Beta-carotene in Yams. If you do not own a dehydrator and using the sun isn’t possible, either lightly bake in a low oven, only until the outside is warm or lightly heat the outside in a frying pan on medium with only enough olive oil brushed on the pan to keep berger from sticking. Non-stick pans are not recommended because at high heat they give off a very toxic substance. Or, you can dispense entirely with the notion of dehydration and just serve them as is, with a bit of NOTMAYO! or Mushroom Gravy on the side.

1 Large Yam
1 1/2 Cups sprouted wheat
1 Tablespoon Miso paste
2 Tablespoons Dulse powder

Put first three ingredients thru Champion (use blank filter). Put mixture in bowl. Mix in Miso paste and Dulse powder thoroughly. Make into 1/2″ thick burger size patties and dehydrate until desired consistency.

This recipe can be done in a food processor. Grate Yams, then switch attachment to S blade, add additional ingredients and process.

note: for more of a ‘cracker’ effect in the dehydrator, make patties smaller and thinner.
