meat Loaf
Since I was a kid, meatloaf has been a sure dish my mother has made every week. The advantage of meat loaf is that you can put it in the oven and bake it slowly at low temperature, and it will be hot and fragrant by dinner time. Whenever friends gather or church picnics, meat loaf is a common meat dish. The difference between meat loaf and other meat dishes is that each family has different recipes and tastes. Some people like to add a lot of ketchup, some people like to add seasoned beef juice, and some people like different vegetables and seasonings and even different meat fillings. As for my family, my mother usually cooks many dishes at the same time, so meat loaf will vary depending on the pairing of other dishes. When there are public events related to catering, I would secretly ask my mother,"Which meat loaf did you make?" She would try to signal to me with an unobtrusive look so as not to embarrass other moms. Meat loaf is a food that requires attention, and sandwiches made from meat loaf left over overnight are intimate and warm food that people will miss. When I grew up and started making my own meatloaf, I used my mother's recipe, but I also added a lot of my own ideas. I remember before my mother passed away, she whispered to me,"You know, I think your meat loaf tastes better than mine. "
