Croquettes

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Won’t firm up

    There are few things worse than a flabby croquette. To fix this problem, soak 1 teaspoon gelatin in 2 tablespoons cold water and then dissolve it over boiling water. Stir it into the croquette mixture and wait until the gelatin hardens. The heat of cooking will dissolve the gelatin, and the croquette will be soft and creamy inside.
