The origin of hamburger The original hamburger was a meat pie made of ground beef and flour, so it was called beef patties. In ancient times, Tatars had the habit of eating beef raw.

People in Hamburg, Germany, improved it by kneading chopped beef sauce in flour, spreading it into cakes, frying it and eating it, so they named it "hamburger patties" after the name of the place. From 65438 to 0850, German immigrants brought the cooking technology of hamburger patties to the United States. 1932 Some people put this fried beef patties into steamed buns sprinkled with sesame seeds as staple food or snacks. Later, after renovation, it gradually merged with sandwiches, and the beef patties were sandwiched in a bun that was split in two, hence the name Hamburg, which means hamburger with bread.

The original name of Hamburg comes from the German city of Hamburg. In English, Hamburger means "from Hamburg", which can refer to the hamburger itself or the patties made of ground beef or other ground beef in the bag. At present, this kind of meat pie is generally called hamburger steak in Chinese, while hamburger is used to refer to a round sandwich with hamburger steak.
