How to keep turkey meatballs from falling apart?
Turkey meatballs can be tricky to keep from falling apart, but luckily there are a few tricks you can use to ensure they stay together while cooking:
- Use cold ground turkey meat: Before forming the meatballs, make sure the meat it is as cold as possible. This will help the proteins bind together and create a firmer structure that won’t fall apart.
- Add moisture: When mixing together the turkey, liquid ingredients such as egg, milk, or Greek yogurt will help moisten the ground turkey and prevent it from becoming too dry and crumbly.
- Add a binder: Starches like bread crumbs and oats make great binders for meatballs.
- Don’t overmix: When you’re combining all of the ingredients together, be gentle and don’t overmix. Overmixing can cause the proteins to break down and the turkey meatballs to become too soft.
