MOM'S MEATBALLS
Scrumptious meatballs from Mom. Mom never browned them first if she was using in her spaghetti sauce. See her recipe for sauce posted in my recipes, recipe #210729. She would drop them in raw and let them simmer for 40 mins. You will have to skim off any excess fat that rises to the top of the sauce if done this way. Or you can saute them first or bake in the oven before adding them to the sauce. No need to skim off any grease if pre-cooked.

Steps:

- Add to Mom's Spaghetti Sauce (posted here).
- Simmer 40 minutes.
Tips:
- Use a combination of ground beef and ground pork for the meatballs. This will give them a more flavorful and juicy texture.
- Soak the bread crumbs in milk before adding them to the meat mixture. This will help to keep the meatballs moist and tender.
- Don't overmix the meat mixture. Overmixing can make the meatballs tough.
- Form the meatballs into small, uniform balls. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Brown the meatballs in a skillet before adding them to the sauce. This will help to seal in the juices and give them a nice crust.
- Use a flavorful sauce for the meatballs. A good option is a tomato-based sauce with plenty of herbs and spices.
- Simmer the meatballs in the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the meatballs to become tender.
