As soon as once more, Dom Dom thinks outdoors the field when selecting what’s inside their burgers.
Think about you’re making a burger. Consider all the usual toppings you would possibly add, issues like tomato, lettuce, and onion. Then think about, as a substitute of these, sliding a slab of potato in there. Appears bizarre, doesn’t it?
However actually, ought to it? In any case, what’s a extra pure pairing for a burger than a aspect of French fries, that are slices of, yep, potato. And now think about sweetening this deal’s spuds through the use of not only a slice of potato, however a slice of candy potato, as a burger topping.
Truthfully, we felt like this idea might go both approach by way of being scrumptious or a catastrophe, however we knew that it needed to go in our abdomen, which is why we headed to Dom Dom Hamburger to attempt their new Osatsu (Candy Potato) Salmon Burger.
Dom Dom is one in every of Japan’s smaller burger chains, however they’ve at all times bought large concepts, whether or not it’s a burger with an entire deep-fried crab in it or one the place the patty is changed by a thick Japanese-style omelet and spicy cod roe. The timing of the Osatsu Salmon Burger’s launch coincides with the tastiest season for each candy potatoes and salmon, so whereas it’s an uncommon idea, that is positively the suitable season to attempt it.
After inserting our order, we had a couple of five-minute watch for our meals. After we unwrapped it, we have been greeted by a stunning sight…
…because the salmon filet is very large, protruding well past the perimeters of the bun!
That is one thing we’ve seen from Dom Dom earlier than, like with their Pink Wing Burger. Within the case of the Osatsu Salmon Burger, although, Dom Dom hasn’t been crowing about its measurement, and with the angle of the promotional picture not exhibiting the entire sandwich, we have been very stunned, in a great way, to see how large it’s.
On high of the fillet is shredded cabbage with tartar sauce, and beneath it’s the slice of fried candy potato.
That is really a special building from what was proven within the promotional picture, the place the candy potato was above the salmon filet, however one benefit to being the one place round that places candy potato in your burgers is that nobody can definitively say that you simply put it within the flawed place.
We sliced the sandwich in half to look at its cross part, which is when one other ingredient made its presence recognized, as there’s cheese too contained in the breading of the salmon filet.
OK, let’s discover out if Dom Dom can persuade us that candy potato has a spot inside a burger, and…
…yep, they certain did! Uncommon because the idea could also be, the flavour right here has a simple, easy-to-love deliciousness that makes for an excellent consuming expertise. A variety of that’s in all probability because of candy potato itself not having any sharp, divisive parts to its taste profile, in order that it provides a pleasantly candy and starchy high quality to the burger with out interfering with or overlaying up any of the sandwich’s different charms.
Lending additional weight to that principle is that after we tried a chew of the candy potato by itself, it was good and attractive, and with no uncommon seasonings or different pointless gildings. Candy potato stands out as the marquee ingredient within the Osatsu Salmon Burger, but it surely’s a staff participant that Dom Dom lets play to its pure strengths.
It’s not solely the flavour that makes the Osatsu Salmon Burger nice, although, however the texture too…or really the textures. Between the crispness of the cabbage, the crunch of the deep-fried salmon fillet, and the fluffiness of the candy potato, there’s a variety of complexity to the mouthfeel right here, and we liked all of it.
With candy potatoes being a seasonal meals, the Osatsu Salmon Burger is likewise going to be accessible for a restricted time solely, however as of October 25 it’s on sale in any respect Dom Dom Hamburger branches. And for those who’re hungry for extra burgers that make of seasonal Japanese substances, Burger King Japan’s new Kyoto Whopper, made with freshly harvested rice, is on the market now too.
