    From the Test Kitchen

    In this dish, we’re using a tangy balsamic glaze to top this turkey meatloaf, which we’re mixing with our new mirepoix—an aromatic base of carrots, celery, and onion that helps build layers of savory flavor. For a hearty accompaniment, we’re serving the meatloaf alongside roasted broccoli and delightfully rich cheesy mashed potatoes.

    tips & techniques
    Prepare the ingredients
    1 Prepare the ingredients

    Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the bottom 1/2 inch of the broccoli stem; cut the broccoli into small florets. Medium dice the potatoes. Grate the cheese on the large side of a box grater. Peel 2 cloves of garlic; using a zester or the small side of a box grater, finely grate into a paste. In a large bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil, as much of the garlic paste as you'd like, and as much of the red pepper flakes as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Season with salt and pepper.

    Line a sheet pan with foil. In a bowl, combine the beef, mirepoix, spice blend, and breadcrumbs; season with salt and pepper. Gently mix to combine. Transfer to one side of the sheet pan. Shape into a tightly packed loaf, about 7 inches by 3 inches. In a bowl, combine the ketchup, sugar, and half the vinegar (you will have extra); season with salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. Transfer half the glaze to a bowl and set aside for serving. Evenly top the meatloaf with the remaining glaze.
