    When Chef John does that tomato crushing stage, he says in no uncertain terms that you should do it with you hands, then says something like "sure you could do it another way, but then you wouldn't feel what I'm feeling, and I want you to feel what I'm feeling!". So great, and a testament to Sonny that he hits the same mark! Great video, I'll try the recipe sometime soon :)

    11:53 we have no other choice, I live in a house with my mom and 3 siblings. When my mom cooks spaghetti she doesn’t cook like 1 or 2 portions per person, she cooks enough spaghetti that we can eat as much as we want and even more for 2-3 days, that doesn’t fit in a pan to cook the spaghetti and sauce, she has a pot of spaghetti and then a HUGE pot of sauce

    Spaghetti and Meatballs is my family's favorite Sunday dinner. I've been making more or less the same recipe for almost 10 years. Yesterday I followed your instructions and oh brother was it worth it. The meatballs were a lot more dynamic and I would usually add ricotta but I think the combo of the fresh bread w/ milk and the mirepoix made them more moist and less dense. The sauce technique also helped level me up a bit. Thanks so much for making your videos.

    OMG Sonny.... I've been in therapy for 8+ years straight (blame my mom, don't most of us?), anyway, one of her most remembered reminders is: "You are in the ocean, you are being tossed by the waves, you have to learn to surf the waves around you, best you can, to keep that head above water." It's the same no matter what you are doing, you gotta bob, and dip with the waves, as they travel up and down, that's LIFE, man. It's been one of the most helpful things my therapist ever told me and you are straight up equating it to cooking and I LOVE that. It's so true. You just gotta bob with the waves, dude.

She said, never forget to add 1-2 tsp sugar, & add large pinch of baking soda- kills the acid & stops heartburn & indigestion for many people. San Marzano tomatoes are key, & cook on low, cover, & cook longer for better flavor.. Come to find out, she was right. ❤

    I have cooked a lot of meatballs in my time, I cooked these today and they're the best by far! Try this recipe. I baked 2 trays of meatballs at 400 for more like 45 mins and did a low broil for 5 mins. I like more brown on top. Don't be afraid to go heavier on the herbs - I did loads of fresh rosemary, thyme, basil, sage and parsley. Bit more salt and red pepper flakes. 5/5

      Pan searing is the only way to properly cook and brown meatballs. Finished in the sauce until cooked through

    "Yeah, we know." 😂
    This is almost exactly how I make my sauce except I usually never have fresh herbs aside from basil. Highly recommended. Given that this is a refinement of what I already do I'm sure it's amazing.

    This is almost exactly how I make my meatballs. The only substantial differences are that I add finely diced red bell pepper to my sofrito, and some mushroom stems that I grind up to a paste. I roast the meatballs at 450 on convection fan, which makes them darker on the outside and still raw in the centre. Then I bring my sauce (the sauce is almost identical, except I usually add some white wine early on ) up to a simmer, drop my (fridge cold) meatballs in and do them in the oven instead of the stovetop. I make sure the meatballs are fully submerged, and I finish them at 350 with no lid, but every 15 minutes I rotate the meatballs which keeps the surface of the sauce from burning and adds some flavour I think.
    I almost never simmer anything on the stovetop if I can avoid it, because even after decades as a pro, I still find it's too easy to burn the sauce to the bottom of the pan and ruin the dish. To be honest, it's rarely happened, but a couple times when it did it was such a disaster that it changed the way I tend to cook. Wrecking large pots of extremely expensive shellfish bisque will do that.
    I really should try making your rosemary salt, it sure sounds delicious.

    lol I'm always worried about my portion sizes with the pasta but 15oz worth of behemoth meatballs in one bowl is wild. Looks great.
