The taste of the dish largely depends on the quality of the minced meat. Previously, meat was minced with a sharp knife, and now professional chefs use this method, but only where a brutal, rude dish is needed. The meat grinder and blender simplified the minced meat process, and you can independently control how large the minced meat particles will be. And to cook delicious minced meat, a few simple tips will help.
Choose the right meat
Good minced meat is obtained from fresh, never frozen meat, in which all vitamins and microelements are preserved. Of course, the choice of one or another piece depends on the dish you are going to cook, but remember that in almost all cases, it is ideal to combine several types of meat.
Prepare a meat grinder
The meat grinder must be clean, with sharp, sharpened knives, and free from rust and lubricants. Some replace the meat grinder with an immersion blender, but this method has one drawback – the veins of meat are often tangled around the axis of the knives.
Add juiciness
Add milk, water, cream, egg white to the minced meat – this will add juiciness to the minced meat. If, on the contrary, you need to make minced meat drier, add bread, boiled potatoes, flour, starch or cereals.
Add taste
Add onions, garlic, spices, peppers, herbs, sauces or marinades to the minced meat – he will only benefit from this. Minced fish will be tastier with lemon juice, turkey with mushrooms and cheese, and lamb with mint, butter and flour.
