Thank you for reading the summary column 😀
This time, we will introduce a recipe for meatballs [Yojiki], which means hedgehog in Russian.
In Russia, it is common to mix rice into meatballs because the rice absorbs the flavor and aroma of the sauce and meat.
Thanks to the rice that is puffed up with that delicious extract, it also makes it more satisfying to eat.
Long grain rice has the property of stretching to nearly twice its length when it absorbs moisture, and the appearance of the stretched rice jumping out of the meatball is the reason why it is called “Hedgehog”.
It is traditionally served with a simple tomato sauce or a rich tomato cream sauce made by mixing sour cream with tomato paste.
This time, we will introduce a recipe for yojiki with tomato sauce that can be eaten refreshingly in spring and summer.
