This is a post all about How to make Meatballs. It breaks it down into easy to manage steps with lots of tips to make the best meatballs ever.
Making meatballs is a very important skill for the home cook. Aside from the obvious the process of making meatballs can teach a number of different cooking skills. For one learning to work with binding agents, such as breadcrumbs and eggs, is a skill that will help you with other recipes such as meatloaf’s, zucchini or potato fritters and many more. Also working with different types of ground meat with different flavors and fat contents can go a long way in teaching home cooks to adapt their cooking skills. For instance, a meat with a lower fat content has a tendency to dry out when roasting, so it might be prudent to cook them in a liquid or sauce instead or add slightly more liquid (milk or water). All of these lessons can be learned through experimentation, which as always with these cooking lessons, is totally encouraged.
