Patties

2 scallions (white and light green parts only), coarsely chopped
1 celery rib, cut into 5-centimeter pieces
455 pounds raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tails removed
12 grams loosely packed fresh Italian parsley leaves
1 tablespoon Old Bay® Seasoning
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
½ teaspoon mustard powder
¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
55 grams panko bread crumbs

Extra-virgin olive oil

Sauce

120 milliliters mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
¾ teaspoon hot pepper sauce

4 hamburger buns, split
4 leaves romaine lettuce
8 very thin slices red onion
8 pepperoncini, thinly sliced into rings (optional)

Instructions

In a food processor combine the scallions and celery and process until finely chopped. Add the remaining patty ingredients, except the bread crumbs, and pulse briefly until the mixture forms a very chunky mixture, about 8 one-second pulses. There should be many pieces of shrimp remaining, each about the size of a pea. Transfer to a bowl. Add the panko to the shrimp mixture and stir gently until just combined. Form into four patties of equal size, each about 11 centimeters in diameter and no more than 12 millimeters thick.
