It is probably about the 6th time I have made them. We love them. Even my teenage son eats them. I vary the vegetables depending on what I have, and also add about a cup of ground sesame seeds. Thanks for such a great recipe, and a great blog. I just made these burgers tonight. It is probably about the 6th time I have made them. We love them. Even my teenage son eats them.

Since you didn't leave an email address, I will hope that you return to read this. I'm dying to know what was confusing to your roommate, of course ;) As to the burgers, I don't know whether you're familiar with vegan foods or not, so it's a bit hard to respond to your comment. I find that a lot of vegan burgers are moist compared to "regular" burgers. It often depends on how long you cook them, or how, or even how long the mixture sits at room temperature before being cooked. It's also a bit of a crap shoot with sweet potatoes, since some contain much more moisture than others. As it turns out, I actually know the chef who created the recipe, so I can ask her how they were meant to come out. Mine were soft but I wouldn't say mushy. . . or maybe I just happen to like them that way! Katie,

I am becoming increasingly vegan and need good recipes to tempt my boyfriend, these will be a good change form the virations of bean and chickpea burgers that I have been making. I am going to enjoy having a read of your blog. These look lovely.

Cassie, Your version of the mushroom/kasha burgers sounds great, too! Let me know how you like these if you do give them a try. veganhomemade, Thanks so much! And while they are wholesome, they just taste good! Lisa, Thought you might like the grain-based aspect here ;) Shayna, Glad to provide another use for it. And I'm thinking I have to give that buckwheat breakfast a try, too! :) (PS--never been to nuit blanche, but it sounded like lots of fun!) Joe, Thanks so much for your comment, and for visiting my blog! Given how adventurous you are on your blog (love it!), glad I could inspire you to use more kasha! healthyceliac, Glad that you now have a way to use up the kasha! Let me know how you like them if you do give them a try :) happy herbivore, The feeling is mutual :) (can't wait for that cookbook. . . !) Lucy, Love the artist's statement. . . very much like the ones I remember reading ;) . I had to laugh when I read your comment about the photos, though--totally by chance, as my free (bought with Airmiles) camera has no settings and is point-and-shoot; I point, shoot, and hope! Megan, Yep! giz, I've been to Annapurna many times (though more frequently when we used to live nearby). Believe it or not, my meat-loving HH is the one who first took me there! Johanna, Thanks so much! I think this recipe is a good one to start with, as the buckwheat is nicely balanced by the sweet potato. CCV, I, too, was smitten by the bakery cakes. Quite the artist, no?
