Bite into History: The Evolution of Hamburgers from Germany to Global Delight

The name “hamburger” is derived from the city of Hamburg, Germany, although the dish itself did not originate there. The concept of a ground meat patty has a long history, but the modern hamburger as we know it today is often attributed to American culinary traditions.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, immigrants from Hamburg, Germany, brought a minced beef dish to the United States. Over time, this dish evolved, and by the early 20th century, the Hamburg steak became popular in America. The transition from the Hamburg steak to the hamburger as a sandwich with a bun is often credited to various American figures and establishments, particularly those associated with the emergence of fast-food culture.

Today, hamburgers are a beloved food enjoyed by people all over the world. As we enjoy them, let us not forget that the spread of this delicious food is thanks to the immigrants from Hamburg, Germany.

漢堡包這個名字雖然源自德國漢堡市，但這種食物本身卻並非起源於那裡。碎肉餅的歷史由來已久，但我們今天所知的漢堡通常與美國烹飪傳統息息相關。

19世紀末和20世紀初，來自德國漢堡的移民將一種碎牛肉菜餚帶到了美國。隨著時間的推移，這種菜餚不斷演變，到20世紀初，漢堡牛排在美國獲得了廣泛的歡迎。從漢堡牛排到三明治形式的漢堡包的轉變，通常歸功於美國各界人士和餐飲機構，特別是那些與快速餐飲文化興起相關的人士。

直到今日，漢堡已經成爲全球各地人民都很喜歡的食物。當我們在大快朵頤時，請不要忘記，這個美食的流傳是德國漢堡的移民的功勞。
