One of the dishes that most impresses me is a lamb burger that can combine ingredients like goat cheese, raspberry vinegar, and even fresh herbs. I’ve made a variety of versions of it over more than three decades. Here’s a tempting summer rendition, using fresh raspberries as well as well as vinegar infused with the crimson fruit.
A Note on Raspberry Vinegar
Raspberry vinegars vary greatly in their sweetness and actual raspberry-ness. I especially like the A L’Olivier brand which calls it “Vinaigre and Framboise.” This brand contains enough berry pulp to be a bit syrupy. Depending on your vinegar’s flavor, you might want to add a touch more sugar or vinegar to the sauce. Just depends on your preference! Or, you can make your own at home for the ultimate power over the flavor.
