October 22, 2020 Meatloaf

Ever since talking with Jen I have wanted meatloaf.  She described her version and it sounded great!

I found on NYTCooking Bill Blass' recipe for meatloaf and it sounded great.  So that is just what I did. 

I made a big mistake, confessions up front, I added the doctored ketchup into the meat loaf instead of just on top.  We will see how it goes.

On top I put a mixture of calabrian chili paste and ketchup.  Tastes pretty darn good.  Inside, which should have been on top, I used a combo of ketchup, cocktail sauce and hoisin.  Didn't have sour cream, so went with 5% yogurt and used panko bread crumbs.  I heavily salted the meat and the onion/celery mixture so I hope that I added enough salt.



The taste of the meatloaf was quite nice.  I think that the texture suffered from the mistake that I made.  It didn't hold together very well.  The recipe makes a HUGE amount so I made 2 smaller loaves and froze the other.

I suppose I could have added another egg and more panko.  Next time!
