How To Make Meatloaf
Making Of The Meatloaf: Making The Glaze:
Meatloaf Sauce: If you make glazed meatloaf, you don’t need to make an additional sauce. The glaze is made by mixing together two tablespoons of ketchup, two teaspoons of prepared mustard, two tablespoons of brown sugar, two teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, ¼ teaspoons of garlic and onion powders. If you don’t choose to glaze your meatloaf and want to add a sauce, you can make a brown gravy by bringing 2 cups of beef broth to a boil, add 2 tsp garlic powder, 2 teaspoons onion powder, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. To this, whisk in a slurry of ¼ cup water mixed with 3 tbsp cornstarch and cook until thickened.
How To Keep Meatloaf From Falling Apart?
First of all, that is why we add an egg. Eggs are the “glue” that holds all the ingredients together by binding them to each other. Second, don’t slice the meatloaf immediately after taking it out of the oven. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. As the meatloaf cools down a bit, it holds its shape better.
Leftover Meatloaf?
If you have any leftovers, wait for them to cool down to room temperature and place them in an airtight container and into the fridge for up to 4 days or the freezer for up to 4 months. If you are freezing your leftovers, remember to label them with the date, so you know by what date you have to consume them. Check Out This Awesome, Italian Meatloaf Recipe
