## Equipment

- cast iron skillet
- spice grinder
- food processor
- baking mat
- knife
- plate
- small bowl

## Tips

- Do not put lettuce on the burger before the cheese. Always put the cheese on first to help it melt.
- To enhance umami flavor, use ingredients like bonito flake, dried shiitake mushrooms, dried kombu, and anchovy.
- Do not over-process beef in the food processor to avoid a soft, meatball-like texture.
- Remove the burger from heat before adding spice powder to prevent smoke.
- Overcooking the patty is a common mistake when adding a spice powder.
- Making sun-dried tomato puree and miso mustard can add additional flavor to the ketchup and mustard.
- Parmesan cheese crisps can add a unique umami element.
