Greek Turkey Burgers

Turkey burgers are great in the summertime because of their light flavor. They are also pretty good for keeping your summer figure as they have less fat than beef. Of course, if you don't have ground turkey available, ground beef would work for these burgers as well.

Feta cheese is a Greek brined white cheese made from sheep's milk or a combination of sheep and goat milk. Crumbly with a slightly grainy texture, it is formed into large blocks and aged in brine. Its flavor is tangy and salty, ranging from mild to sharp. Although Feta is a mild cheese, some prefer a less salty variety. French Feta cheese is less salty than its Greek forebearer.

The yogurt used in the sauce is plain yogurt we made using a sous vide immersion cooker. Mixed with mayonnaise and white pepper, it makes a light sauce perfect for these burgers. You can use whatever buns you like. If you don't want to use buns, feel free to put your Greek turkey burgers in Pita bread.

My good friend gave me some tabouleh, easily the best I have ever had. We will be featuring that recipe soon. Anyway, what goes better with tabouleh than Greek Turkey Burgers and some curried couscous?

These burgers are great for the summer, on the outdoor grill, or on an indoor cast iron griddle. Use your favorite Feta cheese. There are many varieties available, my favorite is French. Of course, if you don't like Feta cheese, you could substitute your favorite cheese instead. Don't be afraid of putting mint, it's not going to taste like peppermint candy.
