Making a delicious burger may seem as simple as whacking a beef patty between two sesame seed buns and finishing adding a slice of iceberg lettuce - but scientists are now begging to disagree。

做一份美味的漢堡看似很簡單——在兩片撒有芝麻粒的面包中間夾上牛肉餅，再加一片生菜就完活。但科學家現在有異議了。

According to new research commissioned by Asda, a great hamburger should stimulate all the senses including sound and feel。

根據阿斯達委托進行的新研究，一款美味的漢堡應該刺激到所有的官能，包括聽覺和觸覺。

Chef and flavour researcher, Charles Michel, said that the sensation of the burger in our hands and the crunch of the lettuce all add to the overall experience。

廚師兼味道研究員查爾斯·米歇爾說：漢堡拿在手里的感覺和吃生菜時嘎吱的聲音都可以提升整體(美味)感受。

Charles Michel, the chef-in-residence and researcher on flavour perception at Oxford University's Research Laboratory, has devised a sensory formula to build the perfectly balanced burger。

查爾斯·米歇爾是常駐廚師，同時是牛津大學研究實驗室的味覺研究員，他設計了一個感覺配方來制作出完美均衡的漢堡。

According to Charles, it is 30 per cent smell, 25 per cent touch, 15 per cent sound, 15 per cent vision and 15 per cent taste。

據查爾斯稱，配方包括30%的嗅覺，25%的觸覺，15%的聽覺，15%的視覺和15%的味覺。

Furthermore, he has calculated the perfect taste of a burger to appeal to our taste receptors。

此外，他還計算出了一個漢堡的完美口味來吸引我們的味覺器官。

It is 35 per cent umami - our fifth taste - which is a sweet and salty enhancer, with 25 per cent saltiness, 20 per cent sweetness, 15 per cent sourness and five per cent bitterness。

口味的35%為鮮味——我們的第五種味覺——有點甜又有點咸，25%的咸味，20%的甜味，15%的酸味，還有5%的苦。

The chef determined that burger width is more important than height, with the perfect burger standing at 7cm wide to hit all your taste buds at once。

廚師還確定漢堡的寬度比高度更重要，7厘米寬的漢堡一下子就能觸碰到你所有的味蕾。

The recipe comes with a complex chart, explaining the purpose of each ingredient - and which sense it serves to stimulate。

這個配方繪有復雜的圖表，解釋了每種配料的用意——哪種配料是為了刺激哪種感官的。

The entire burger contains eight important components, including a seeded burger bread, Chipotle sauce, vegetables - including a lettuce leaf and sliced gherkin, a slice of tomato, a crunchy layer of dried Serrano Ham and deep fried onion slices, slices of Camembert, Wagyu beef, ketchup and soy sauce。

整個漢堡包括8種重要配料，包括帶有芝麻粒的漢堡面包，墨西哥辣椒醬，蔬菜——包括一片生菜葉和腌黃瓜片，一片西紅柿，一層脆的西班牙干火腿和炸洋蔥片，卡門培爾奶酪片，日本和牛肉，番茄醬和醬油。
