Slider
Small Burger
Sliders are a fun and easy way to enjoy a mini burger without committing to a full-sized one. The patty can be made with beef, chicken, turkey, or even vegetarian options like black bean or portobello mushroom. The bun can be toasted and topped with cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, or any other toppings of your choice. Sliders are perfect for parties or as a quick and easy meal option.
Origins and history
The origin of the slider is debated, but it is believed to have originated in the United States in the early 20th century. White Castle is often credited with popularizing the slider, as they began selling their small burgers in the 1920s. Sliders have since become a staple in American cuisine and can be found on menus at many restaurants and fast food chains.
Dietary considerations
Can be made to accommodate various dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free buns or vegetarian/vegan patties.
Variations
Variations of sliders can include different types of buns, such as pretzel or brioche, and different types of patties, such as lamb or salmon. Some sliders may also be served with unique toppings, such as avocado or fried egg.
Presentation and garnishing
Sliders can be presented on a platter or individual plates. Garnish with a sprig of parsley or a pickle spear for added color and flavor.
Tips & Tricks
When making sliders, be sure to not overcook the patties as they can become dry. Toasting the buns can also add an extra layer of flavor and texture to the dish.
Side-dishes
Side dishes that pair well with sliders include french fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings, or a side salad. Sliders can also be served with a dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or aioli.
Drink pairings
Drink pairings for sliders can include beer, soda, or a milkshake. For a more elevated pairing, try a red wine like Pinot Noir or a cocktail like a Bloody Mary.
