Beta Bergers
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 isnÂ’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 Marvelous Mushroom Gravy (see Dressing chapter) on the side.
1 Large Yam
1 1/2 Cups sprouted wheat
Medium red or yellow onion
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 and onions, 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.
