Questions about Meat loaf
How do you stop meat loaf from falling apart?
Mix in a binder such as beaten egg with breadcrumbs or soaked bread, and combine just until the mixture holds together. Let the cooked loaf rest for about 10 minutes before slicing so it sets.
How do you know when meat loaf is cooked through?
Check the centre with a food thermometer: it should reach 75 °C. Insert the probe into the thickest part, avoiding the tin.
How long does cooked meat loaf keep in the fridge?
Cool it promptly, then store it covered in the fridge and eat it within 3–4 days. Reheat slices until steaming hot all the way through.
Can you freeze meat loaf?
Yes. Freeze it cooked or uncooked in an airtight, freezer-safe wrapping; freezing cooked slices makes it easy to thaw only what you need. Defrost in the fridge before reheating.
What do you serve with meat loaf?
Mashed potatoes, gravy and peas are a classic combination. Roasted carrots or green beans also work well alongside a slice.
What can you use instead of breadcrumbs in meat loaf?
Rolled oats, crushed crackers or torn bread soaked in milk can bind the mixture. Use about the same volume as the breadcrumbs, adding a little at a time until the mixture holds its shape.
Can you eat meat loaf cold?
Yes, cooked meat loaf can be eaten cold once it has been chilled and stored safely. Slice it for sandwiches, or serve it with salad.
