- Sift the garlic powder and dry mustard though a fine strainer into a large bowl.<\/li>\n
- Add the soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce.<\/li>\n
- Work the egg though the strainer to remove the stringy part (chalazae)<\/li>\n
- Add the bread and mix with a fork until it forms a slurry.<\/li>\n
- Add the onion and the ground turkey and mix until thoroughly combined.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cooking Method #1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Lightly oil a pan with Olive Oil, and preheat on medium-high. Reduce heat to medium.<\/li>\n
- Form into golf-ball sized balls and gently place in the pan. Cook until browned, then turn by 1\/3 and continue cooking. Turn by 1\/3 again. When browned, rotate again, cooking any remaining non-browned areas in the same way. Because the meatballs are still extremely soft at this point, handle them gently and turn with a couple of spoons, not tongs.<\/li>\n
- Note that at this point, the outside is all yummy-looking, but the inside is still raw turkey. Don’t skip the next step!<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Cover the bottom of a pot with about an inch of sauce, add the meatballs, then add sauce to cover. Simmer on medium-low until the meatballs have an internal temperature of at least 165\u00b0F, which is the minimum safe poultry temperature according to the FDA.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cooking Method #2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F<\/li>\n
- Place sauce in pot, set on stove and bring to a very gentle simmer.<\/li>\n
- Form into golf-ball sized balls and gently place on the sheet pans. You’ll need two sheet pans.<\/li>\n
- Place in the oven and bake until browned and internal temperature is about 165\u00b0F, which is the minimum safe poultry temperature according to the FDA.<\/li>\n
- Add meatballs to sauce, and serve. Note that this will keep warm on the stove or in a crock pot quite nicely for at least a couple of hours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Note that this recipe work well when scaled, and the balls and sauce freeze beautifully.<\/p>\n At least in this area, ground turkey at Sam’s Club in 5 pound packages costs about 1\/3 as much as at the grocery store.<\/p>\n Makes about 40 meatballs, slightly larger than a golf-ball.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Make a few extra since some always seem to “disappear” before they leave the kitchen. They’re the absolute equal and possibly better than any beef-based meatball I’ve tried.
