Housewives who regularly cook cutlets are usually divided into two categories.
The former follow classic recipes and recommendations in everything, carefully measuring out each component and focusing on quality standards adopted decades ago.
The second category of housewives loves constant culinary experiments and is not afraid to introduce some “strange” ingredients into the minced meat.
Why add ice and sugar to minced meat
Not for sweetness at all
Some people immediately start thinking that the cutlets will be sweet, which will ruin the classic dish. But this is not true. Sugar is only needed to reveal the taste of all the other products.
Spices “sound” especially bright when sugar is added, and the meat itself seems more delicious.
What is the function of ice?
The cold component is necessary to ensure that the cutlets do not become smaller during the frying process: thanks to the ice, the dish remains fluffy and retains its delicious juiciness.
The ice should first be crushed into crumbs.
