Why do they call them ?

Question

hambugers when they're made out of beef ?

Answer 1

Etymology
The word "Hamburger" comes from Hamburg, Germany; the inhabitants of this city are also known as "Hamburger" in German but as Hamburgians in English. In Germany, local traditional snacks are often named after the place of origin, like the Frankfurter (also known as a hotdog), the Berliner (a type of "doughnut") or (Nürnberger) Bratwurst. In Hamburg it was common to put a piece of roast pork into a roll, called Rundstück warm, although this is missing the "essence" of the modern hamburger, which is ground meat. Yet another theory however states that also in Hamburg, Germany, meatscraps, similar to modern ground beef were served on a Brötchen a round bun-shaped piece of bread. It is said that German immigrants then took the Hamburger to the United States, where the bun was added, creating the modern Hamburger


Precursors and origins
The hamburger as ground meat can be traced back to the time when the Mongols (c. 1209) carried flat patties of lamb or mutton as a food source. Mongol riders would place the meat under the saddle; the saddle would tenderize the meat and the meat would be eaten raw. It gave the Mongols the ability to carry food, and eat it, all without dismounting from the horse. When the Mongols invaded Moscow, the hamburger was also brought and in turn was adopted as a cuisine named steak tartare after the invading Mongols (who were also known as the Tatars). Later, the German port of Hamburg had ships that visited a Baltic (by that time Russian) port and thus brought with it the new "tartare steak" as they would later call it. Ships from Hamburg, Germany coincidently shipped to New York also, and brought what is now known as the Hamburg steak.

In the Middle Ages, Hamburg was an important center of trade between Arab and European merchants. The theory is that Arab traders introduced Kibbeh, which is ground lamb mixed with spices, often eaten raw. The locals then adapted the dish by replacing the lamb with pork and/or beef, and more significantly, by cooking it to make a filet of ground meat, i.e., a "Hamburg Steak" or "Hamburger" as it eventually came to be known. From this they made a new and unique kind of Rundstück warm that came to be strongly associated with the city.

There is still a German tradition of making ground beef sandwiches, thought to descend from the original "Hamburg Rundstück," and which tend to be elongated like an American sub sandwich, and feature very different condiments than the typical modern hamburger. These are often referred to as "German hamburgers" outside of Germany, and are served in many German-food restaurants.

Within Germany, the specific connection between the food and the city of Hamburg became lost as the sandwich spread throughout the country and became a somewhat common dish. In other countries, the historical term "Hamburger" remained in popular usage to describe ground meat rolls and sandwiches. In modern times, the term hamburger may refer to the meat patty used to make the sandwich or to the sandwich itself.

For now, i ought to ought to decline. Blown calls will continually be a component of the game........maximum human beings of clown calls absolutely are not that undesirable, thinking the umpire has to make the decision promptly. there are purely a pair in a given 12 months the position that's totally obtrusive to the bare eye. Over a 162 sport season, the calls wil leven out, like Eric suggested. notwithstanding, I do imagine replay should be used interior the playoffs on something yet balls and strikes. that's honestly a time at the same time as no human being needs to win/lose a sport because of a decision.

Answer 4

Well I'm certainly not going to write a book on the subject, the origin of the hamburger is where the name came from. Hamburg, Germany. That being said, why is it a cheeseburger and not a hamburger with cheese? Sorry, another question for another day.

Hamburg, NY also claims a share of the credit for their invention.
In any case, it was the US which 1st began to mass-market hamburgers.

Because the Earl of sandwhich invented the Two slices of bread plus filling (TRUE!!) then visited Hamburg but could only get rolls of bread-which he ordered be cut in half and filled with food...so it actually has nothing to do with the meat.
