Types of minced meat
To prepare meatballs and meatloafs it is important to choose a ground that has also a little fatty part. Belly and armhole the best parts to grind the veal, the pig are used shoulder and bacon, while for white meat, usually very lean, all parts are fine, but to get soft meatballs you must always add a creamy part of ricotta or robiola.
For a good ragù they usually grind together beef and pork, while for the hamburger the ideal cuts are the sirloin, neck and staple of beef which can also be ground together.
How to choose and store the ground
Always ask your butcher to grind the meat at the moment both for a matter of freshness and hygiene, and because very often the ground coffee is ready made with pieces of mixed meat waste.
Minced meat can be stored in the refrigerator for three days at best because then it becomes dark and takes a bad smell. If it is fresh, you can freeze it in special freezer plastic bags or in sealed containers. You can also freeze the meatballs or the meatloaf after preparing the dough.
Ragout and meatballs
Ragù, meatballs and meatloaf are the best known recipes based on minced meat and we love them because they are very versatile. The ragout, White or red, can be enriched with mushrooms and vegetables and can be made with minced meat. The same goes for the meatballs that they can have many tastes and can be cooked differently (pan, oven, steam).
Ragù and meatballs are also the favorite dishes from the children because the minced meat is tender and tasty and should not be eaten with a fork and knife. Indeed, the smaller meatballs can be eaten even with your hands!
