Why bread for cutlets should not be minced: a common mistake of inexperienced cooks
28.03.2024 12:20
Not all cooks buy ready-made minced meat.
Many people prefer to grind meat for cutlets themselves.
And often, together with the meat component, some other components of the future cutlet base also go through the meat grinder. We are talking about bread and onions.
However, this approach is wrong.
Why? This question was answered by the expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, cook, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova .
Why you shouldn't put bread through a meat grinder
Because with such processing the bakery product will become “rubbery”.
The cutlet base will acquire the wrong consistency. The finished dish will definitely not be soft, tender and fluffy.
To avoid problems, the soaked crumb should be crushed by hand. The resulting mass should be mixed with the minced meat.
Why you shouldn't put onions through a meat grinder
The onion will lose its bright flavor if it is chopped using the above-mentioned device.
It is better to chop the vegetable with a knife. Small onion cubes will make the cutlets appetizing, but the sly "porridge" is unlikely to improve the dish.
Earlier, the expert told how to make spicy carrot cakes.
