I've always used my hands, and that is the best choice! After all, didn't they come before silverware!? I can recall as a teenager, mixing them for my mom, as she added all the ingredients in stages, and how grossed out I got when she added those raw! Eggs! Yikes! But, I survived, and grew with age!

I've been looking forward to trying making one now for a couple of weeks and will do it. I can now see that mixing it wouldn't probably happen any other way.

We'll see how it goes. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jan Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 2:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CnD] meat loaf comment and recipe The hands are best and use a bowl that's larger than you think you need.
