Spaghetti hamburger?!?

[TNHarley]

TNH, just promise to tell us how it turns out. I love your experiments!

I will!

So I have got a wild hair up my ass and want to create something fun. So I thought about a spaghetti hamburger. Make a bun out of noodles, patty, mozze cheese, slice of tomato and some of my homemade tomato sauce. My only problem is figuring out how to make the noodles stick good enough to make a usable bun..
I was conversing with my mom about it and she gave me a great idea. Panko!
So i thought on that and figured i would try this : Cook the noodles down and then quarter them. Mix up some panko and some milk and make it REALLY thick. Stir in the noodles and shape them up. Lightly fry. Maybe even broil?
Do you think it will work?

There is a guy that learned how to make a bun out of Ramen noodles, you might want to look into how he did that and try to use that with spaghetti instead.

Go with a hollowed out sourdough as your bun. Toasted with garlic. You then stuff it with spaghetti.

The convicts at the prison I worked at used Ramen noodles to make a pizza crust all the time. It will work.

Do you know what they did?

Not exactly. Sorry. But try this maybe.

Open all noodles and place inside some type plastic bag (lg. corn chip bag works great). Add cornchips and crush mix thouroughly (don’t leave any large chunks), then add the seasoning packs. Then bring some water to boil in your hotpot. While your water heats up go ahead and slice up your jalapenos and summer sausage. Once the water is hot enough, pour into your bag with the noodle/chip/seasoning mix. Important: add just enough water to come up just below top of mix (don’t drown them).Refill pot and heat can of chilli in it. Knead and work the bag with noodles in it around mixing thouroughly. Once this is done lay bag out and flatten down evenly, making dough/crust. If you’ve done this correctly there shouldn’t be alot of water running out if there is add more crushed chips and mix untill thickens. Fold end of bag, secure with paper clip, and wrap with towel to insulate and let “cook” for about 10 mins. Once done cut bag down middle and bottom and spread open. Noodles should remain in rectangular shape and be stuck together (like dough). Pour your chilli over top and spread evenly (if too runny add a few crushed corn chips to thicken mix. Then comes a layer of squeeze cheese, topped with summer sausage and jalapenos. Slice evenly and enjoy with your cell mates. Yum.

That gives me another idea to try. Crush the noodles up. lightly mix with some flour and egg and then fry them.
With them crushed up, it would might be easier to handle(make my bun). Im just picturing them really thick. Kinda like a salmon patty. Awesome

freaking muffin tray! My first thought was to find a way to hold them together.. i was picturing metal bowls you use when you want to warm up cheese on a patty or something like that. MUFFIN TRAY

Or empty tuna (or catfood) cans with the top and bottom both cut out.

Don't use the panko.

Overcook the pasta, let it cool, form it the way you want, then brush it with an egg wash. Bake this for a few minutes and it will hold it's form.

I say overcook because you don't want it to dry out too much during this process.

When I ran one of those gas Station/restaurant combos that are famous in towns in Kentucky, I created and made a pizza burger that people absolutely loved. Hamburger patty seasoned with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, cooked until brown on both sides, then put on a dab of pizza sauce and let cook while cooking a couple slices of pepperoni on the side of the skillet. Then put the cooked pepperoni on top, cover with a think slice of mozzarella or muenster, let cheese melt, then serve. It was pretty popular.

I don't think that concoction will end up resembling a bun, TNH
But you do come up with some really fascinating culinary ideas

If i fail, i will try it a different way. This is GOING to happen lol.
Im going to freak all of you guys out when i sell the recipe to Olive Garden

Perusing the Olive Garden menu I see 0 burgers

My sorry ass GOOK neighbors back 20 years ago used to throw empty tuna cans into my backyard that had been opened with a can opener and had the lids still attached. Several times I had to take my dog to the vet because his tongue was all cut up and bleeding and stuck in the can.

Sounds very strange. So if this is the bun, what will the hamburger middle part be made out of? Will it be as equally odd lol.

Agree. Ever leave spaghetti in the bottom of the colander til it cools? Come back and it's in a congealed lump. As long as it's overcooked, like you said.

My deceased Italian Grandmother will now haunt all of you for what you have done, are doing, or will do to pasta based on this thread.

I don't know. I asked them about it and they just denied it. We never got along after all that.
