Pork Meatball FAQ
When it comes to cooking pork meatballs, many people often wonder about the appropriate quantity of ingredients, the best cooking method, how to prevent the meatballs from falling apart, or how to ensure they are cooked through without being dry. One common mistake is using only lean meat, which results in dry and less flavorful meatballs. Using a mix of lean and fatty pork is ideal. Also, overworking the mixture can cause the meatballs to become tough. To get the most out of your pork meatballs, consider braising or simmering them in a sauce after browning, which not only makes them juicy but also flavorful. An interesting trick to check seasoning is to cook a small amount of meatball mixture before forming the meatballs. This way you can adjust the seasoning as needed.
