Despite the fact that the classic cutlet recipe is constantly being revised and adjusted, the use of bread is almost always justified.

This component is the key to the splendor, juiciness and high quality of the meat product.

However, it is important to understand how much bread should be added to the minced meat. If you add too little, no effect will be achieved. Perhaps the cutlets will only slightly change the taste, but it is unlikely that they will be fluffy and juicy.

If you add too much bread, the characteristic taste of the meat will be “lost”, which will also not have the best effect on the final state of the dish.

What proportions of minced meat and bread can be called "golden"

If you want the cutlets to be perfect, you first need to find slightly dried bread. Some take a loaf, while other housewives prefer a product made from rye flour. There are no fundamental differences, so it can safely be called a matter of taste.

In order for the cutlets to pleasantly surprise you, the bread should account for a third of the total volume of minced meat. Such proportions are considered verified and ideal.
