5) Insert the meatloaf wrapped with aluminum foil into the ready-made broth (see my broth recipe).
6) After a few minutes of cooking, extract the aluminum foil with pliers. Immerse completely the meatloaf and boil it for 1 hour and a half with the lid slightly moved, to let the steam out. Turn the meatloaf once in a while, it tends to come flat and if you don’t turn it over risk to forming a crust on the top.
7) Remove from the broth and cut into slices.
