A pan of bubbling red sauce and freshly made meatballs has a way of pulling everyone into the kitchen.
In this hands-on class, we’ll make hand-formed meatballs from a blend of pork and beef while exploring the techniques that create tender texture and deep flavor. Together, we’ll prepare a rich red sauce built with plenty of olive oil and a rolling boil that naturally emulsifies the sauce into something silky, rich, and deeply flavorful.
Along the way, we’ll discuss meat blends, fat content, seasoning, grinding, and the role of milk-soaked bread in creating soft, tender meatballs that stay juicy and light rather than dense or dry.
This classic meatball method can live in countless meals and traditions. We love ours with crusty bread and a big bowl of pasta — how do you like yours?
