Sorry for the delay. The last "picture" is a video of me flipping burgers. American dressing (http://www.kavli.se/wps/wcm/connect/se/Produkter/Tubdressing/Amerikansk+dressing) is mayonaise, diced pickled cucumber and tomato puree, or what you most likely would call "Thousand island dressing" or "Russian dressing". However, my own suggestion here is to mix diced pickled cucumber, ajvar (pepper puree), and mayonaise.

Very glad you liked it. Keep on building on the shoulders of others.

what a cool idea ! I usually use a mayonaise lid if I don't free form the burger but this has the dimple already in the middle! Your idea with the paper strip means I wouldn't have to bang the lid on the counter to get each burger out, fantastic ! Unfortunately the last picture won't open for me so I don't know if that was your "american dressing" I'd like to know what that is. IMO the toppings for a burger are cheese, raw onion slice and ketchup (catsup) for the basic but you can build from there, tomato, bacon, my pepper relish ( http://www.instructables.com/id/Pepper-Relish-V303/ )
