Meatballs are a dish that can be enjoyed at any time, either for lunch or dinner. A bowl of hot meatballs is always appetizing, especially when the broth is given additional sauce, chili sauce, or soy sauce. This beef-based food is even more delicious when eaten while warm.
One of the keys to the deliciousness of meatballs lies in their texture. Many people prefer meatballs with a chewy, dense, and delicious texture when bitten. To get this texture, some people usually add ice cubes and baking powder to the dough. After the dough is mixed, the meatballs are then formed into balls by hand.
However, there is another trick to make chewy and fail-proof meatballs . This method is shared by YouTuber IKE SURYANI. Without the need to add ice cubes or baking powder, you can produce meatballs with a chewier and fibrous texture.
This video from the YouTube IKE SURYANI Channel has also caught the attention of netizens. Since it was uploaded in September 2020, this video has been watched up to 20.7 thousand times. Not only that, the comments column of this video is also filled with various responses from other YouTube users.
"Thank you for this new knowledge, it turns out that agar agar can be used to make it chewy," wrote the YouTube account @omratori1508.
"Thank you very much, Mom, for the recipe. I just found out that to make meatballs chewy, you need to add agar-agar. The information is really good, Mom," said the YouTube account @QoryFAM.
"Wow, I just found out, sis, it turns out you can use meatballs to make them "great, sis :)," said the YouTube account @sacha2301.

First, prepare the main ingredients first. There are 1 kg of beef, 200 gr of tapioca flour, 1 egg and 1 pack of agar-agar. "Well, this agar-agar functions as a natural thickener for the meatball dough later," he explained as quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube IKE SURYANI Channel, Thursday (19/9).
