Cooking Tips
Cooking Tips
1. You can also add shredded roasted beets to the mix. Already cooked, packaged roasted beets are commonly found in produce sections, but can also roast your own. Make sure to squeeze excess water out before adding to the mix. They help to keep the burger juicy and moist, which some black bean burgers can be a bit dry.
2. Add 1 packed tablespoon of chopped Italian parsley for visual appeal and flavor.
3. For an extra boost of flavor add homemade vegan mayonnaise to the top the burger with a mix of equal parts mayonnaise and fermented sauerkraut.
