Leftover Meatloaf Tricks
- Serve a warmed over slide with a fried egg on top for breakfast
- Dip a slice in egg wash and then panko bread crumnbs and fry in a skillet till browned
- Start on low heat – about 325º – and cook till internal temp reaches about 165º – glaze at about 15 minutes
The goal of a casserole is not to prepare a restaurant-quality showpiece, but is rather to feed the hungry and heartbroken.
- Allow for drainage, or you could get a soggy bottom. There are meatloaf pans that have holes in them to let the grease drop to the bottom of the pan.
- A casserole should have kind of a creamy mouth feel to it, have a crunchy top (traditionally Ritz Crackers) and you should be able to identify the individual components within the casserole.
- Add a bit of cornstarch to your meat and it will gel some of the run-off. Shredded Parmesan also does this.
- The advent of soup make it unnecessary to start with a bechemel sauce or veloute sauce.
- Many meatloaf recipes use stale bread crumbs. Try these options:
– Use a fresh and hearty loaf such as French bread
– Use dry oatmeal – not minute oats, but traditional rolled oats
