    This reminds me of a time when I was experimenting with sausage binders, I know I tried oats, cooked rice (which is traditional) and polenta flour among others. I really loved the texture of the polenta, but I need to try tapioca now just so I know.

    Hoo, boy…1970's Scottish Primary School tapioca "pudding" nightmare trigger :). The stuff looked like and had the texture frogspawn, and the dinner monitors made you eat the whole lot and it gave you "the boke". At least now as and adult I know it comes from a plant, so slightly less triggered.

    The recipe states 2 Cups STRAINED can tomatoes, I think that is way yours was very "juicy", BUT I think I will keep it the way you did it and keep the juice in.

    Very cool! I always love the Old Cookbook videos! Thank you friend for sharing! I would be worried too of all the moisture but glad it turned out pleasant for you! Have you ever had cinnamon added to your meatloaf before, just a touch or two I really feel brings out the beef savory beef flavor and accents the typical sweetness that an American meatloaf has that’s topped with katsup.

    I would mix in a stand mixer to bind it all together like sausage. I dont think you mixed it enough really. Here in Thailand we use slaked tapioca flour to make pork dumplings juicy for rice porridge.

    I so enjoy your old cookbook episodes that when I found a reprint copy of Ogilvies 1905 Book for a Cook (Classic Canadian Cookbook series by Whitecap) in a Toronto bookshop I had to have it. I’m going to try the tapioca meatloaf but now I have dozens more historical artifacts to eat my way through.

    During the extended shutdown, I found my hair growing to lengths unknown since the 70’s. With the opportunity this new length afforded, my first trip to my hairstylist included a nod to Brendan Fraser from the Mummy movies, and your new logo featuring the long bangs look. I told my girl, “I wanna look just like Glenn!” Half an hour later, my new snappy, trendy, awesome coif was revealed to many affirming comments. Imagine my shock and chagrin when this episode presented a new Glenn look! I’m devastated, I tell ya: devastated! Thank goodness it can grow back.

    Never tried tapioca in meatloaf either. I am an oats girl for the binding agent in meatloaf. I've tried bread crumbs and crackers, but nothing compares to meatloaf made with oats.
