How do you keep Meatloaf moist?
Stale bread is an essential ingredient in meatloaf, as it binds the meat together. But blending in dry bread will take away some of the moisture from the meat. For a more moist meatloaf, soak the bread in milk until it becomes thick and mushy before blending the mixture together.
How long does it take to cook meatloaf at 375 degrees?
In a 350 degree preheated oven it will take around 40-50 minutes to cook meatloaf at 375 degrees.
Should you cover meatloaf with foil when baking?
Yes. Cover the large meatloaf with aluminium foil while baking to keep it moist. But remove the foil during the last 15 minutes.
