I had excellent results. I added a pinch of salt and a couple of tablespoons of butter and a few drops of red food coloring. The first patties that I made were kind of sticky at first, but I covered them with a sheet of wax paper (loosely) and left them overnight. The consistency was good the next morning and the flavor was excellent -- improved over immediately after cooking. My Calphalon non-stick roasting pan was perfect for the project -- no sticking and no burning.

This is a wonderful recipe. It took about 1 1/2 hours to prepare and an additional 1 to settle completely. It will probably rate higher when I try it again. Thanks for entering the recipe.
