What bread should not be added to minced meat for cutlets: the mass will turn into a lump

It is not always possible to make really fluffy and tasty cutlets. The products often turn out gray and very bland. This is because you add the wrong bread to the minced meat.

The FoodOboz editorial team will tell you what kind of bread you should add to cutlets to make the dish really tasty. You can also use several alternatives.

What is the main mistake of adding bread to minced meat

Not all the bread can be added to the minced meat to make the cutlets really tasty. It is at this stage of cooking that mistakes are most often made when fresh bread is added to cutlets.

If you are convinced that there is no difference, this is an erroneous judgment. Fresh bread will turn the mass for the cutlets into one solid lump of gray color. You simply won't be able to form products from such minced meat. Fresh bread is distributed very unevenly.

What kind of bread is best for meatballs

Stale bread is the best choice for making the dish. You can grind it into crumbs in a blender. This bread will mix perfectly with the meat and make the minced meat tender and fluffy.

What you can use instead of bread

If you don't want to add bread or simply don't have any, you can use semolina or ready-made breadcrumbs in a packet. Also, the cutlets will be very juicy if you grate one potato into the minced meat. Before adding the vegetable, squeeze it well to remove excess moisture.
