Why experienced chefs add soda to minced meat: you have never tried such juicy cutlets
Any experienced cook will try all the suggested methods to make cutlets juicy.
The fact is that all known methods give different results.
In order for the cutlets to be juicy, it is first important to “dilute” the lean meat with fatty pork or a piece of lard.
It is also extremely important to add a sufficient amount of onion, which is also "responsible" for juiciness. But these are not the only secrets that can help in achieving the result. Many note the high efficiency of using soda.
How to use an unusual component correctly
First of all, it is important to mention that we are not talking about sweet water: we need to find mineral water with gas. It is also important to emphasize that the water should not have a characteristic "pharmacy" taste.
For every kilogram of minced meat you need to take half a glass of liquid.
The soda is first put in the refrigerator. Mix the minced meat with spices (without salt), add the soda and stir the semi-finished product.
Wait for two hours. Then add onion and other ingredients if necessary.
Then you can safely start frying the cutlets.
