yolk or white – Different
When preparing minced meat for cutlets, most people add a whole egg to the ground meat. But, it turns out, it is not worth doing so.
Some believe that yolk and protein in meatballs are mandatory. For example, without them, the minced meat will fall apart during frying in a pan, and the cutlets themselves will not hold their shape well.
In fact, professionals claim that there should be no protein at all in the minced meat for meatballs. A whole egg will make the dish too hard and dry. This can be explained by the fact that both meat and eggs contain a large number of proteins, which absorb moisture and coagulate during frying.
That is why it is better to add only yolk to minced meat. So the cutlets will be juicy, soft, but will not lose their shape during frying.
