Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 4 brioche hamburger buns, split
  • 2 pounds ground chuck, shaped into eight 1/4-inch-thick patties
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 slices of cheddar cheese
  • 4 butter lettuce leaves
  • 4 shiso or sesame (perilla) leaves
  • 4 thin slices of tomato
  • 4 thin slices of red onion

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the sesame seeds.
  2. Heat a large nonstick griddle or 2 nonstick skillets over moderate heat. Butter the cut sides of the hamburger buns and toast them on the griddle until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
  3. Season the patties with salt and pepper. Brush the griddle with the olive oil, add the patties and cook over high heat for 2 minutes. Flip the patties and cook for 2 minutes longer, then top each one with a slice of cheddar cheese. Cook just until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
  4. Stack 2 burgers on each bun. Top with the lettuce, shiso leaves, tomato and onion. Spread the top halves of the buns with the sesame mayo, close the burgers and serve.
