This hamburger press shapes a patty 10cm across using a top plate that presses down evenly, so the meat compacts into a disc that holds together on the grill instead of falling apa rt at the edges. It's made from aluminium with a stainless steel base, made in Italy, and comes in white or silver. Why a Pressed Patty Holds Together A hand-shaped patty is only as compact as however hard you happened to squeeze it, which is why the edges are usually looser than the middle and are the first place a burger falls apart on the grill. The press applies the same pressure across the whole disc instead, so every patty comes out the same thickness and density. Meat mixes: comes out evenly compacted from edge to middle, rather than looser at the rim. Fish, vegetarian or plant-based mixes: the even pressure matters even more here, since there's less binding fat to hold a loosely packed patty together. Pairs With The Meat Tenderiser Mallet is handy for flattening cuts before mincing your own burger mix. Show more
