Super-Simple Friday Night Meatballs (Dinner)

Actually made the sauce from the recipe.

Found tomatoes without citric acid like Ethan Chlebowski recommended.

Pretty good food for days! Meatballs and asparagus on a plate, with parmesan in the background

Super-Simple Friday Night Meatballs (Dinner)

As usual, I satueed some onion first, then added 2 quarts of my pomarola sauce.

1.5lbs of beef, .5 of pork. Panko bread crumbs (1 cup) moistened with the eggs and some milk.

Super-Simple Friday Night Meatballs (Dinner)

With romanesco

Same adjustments as last time. Used 2 quarts of my sauce, that amount was good. Only adjustment would be a bit more (maybe quite a bit more) salt in the meatballs. I really like how the meatballs get into the sauce a little bit, there's some nice texture magic all around. Cooking meatballs

Super-Simple Friday Night Meatballs (Dinner)

I used my canned pomarola; subbed in 3/4 lb gr pork (I had 1.25 lbs ground beef already), used ready-made breadcrumbs (maybe 1 cup) moistened with buttermilk and left out the adobo. These were pretty great - easier than the fancy meatballs (another serious eats recipe from a few weeks before?), and better received.
