The Best Meatball Recipe | Home Movies with Alison Roman

- čas přidán 15. 07. 2024
- In the first episode of Home Movies with Alison Roman (that's me), I'm going to be showing you how I make meatballs from my newsletter, cleverly titled, "A Newsletter." While a lot of my recipes are inspired by something FUN and WONDERFUL, these ones were inspired by.....something, uh, not great. Anyway, I won't say this is the ONLY way to make meatballs, but I do think it's the BEST. There's isn’t really a “secret” to them, but there are two important steps that make a huge difference:
1. Using bread crumbs instead of fresh bread, and soaking them in a mixture of ricotta and egg for at least 10 minutes. This is essentially the “soak milk in bread” step you’ll find in many meatball recipes, but instead of soaking the bread in milk, soak it in cheese. Cheese is better than milk. Simple math. This means the meatballs will be richer, more flavorful with the added bonus of never having to say "now I'm going to soak milk in bread."
2. Searing the meatballs in the pot, then making the sauce. Meatballs done on a sheet pan are not bad, but they are not browned, and the browning is what is going to not only make our meatballs taste amazing, but the sauce, too (and yes, I've tested side by side, and YES there IS a difference!). Doing them in a pot is more work, sure, but you reap the rewards in the form of fat and juicy bits and browned, delicious meat that all flavor your tomato sauce as you finish gently cooking the meatballs.

Mvgukkllpppp
There's no end to the amount of gushing lonely people will do to try to attract the attention of a channel creator. So, so sad.
THANK YOU!! I can only watch that shallot anchovy pasta video so many times
THANK YOU for saying that. I've been doing the exact same thing for the last three days lol
Yes I’ve rewatched it too 😂😂
I love that recipe! It's my go-to weeknight dinner
I have to cook this.
I made the anchovy sauce and just ate it with bread....for like 4 days in a row!!!🥰
The font, the colors, the fact that you’re back: all amore.
Our actual comments: She's cooking w/ her rings! I love her rings! Where's her shirt from? Her pants are amazing! I love her voice!
I really like what is in that shirt and pants! 👍👍👍
I’m SO HAPPY YOU’RE BACK ON VIDEO FORMAT
At age 79+, here is my greatest complement “You are real” and therefore a real treat
An older fan here..about those opening remarks, don't lose the ring, Doll. Or the smirk or the red nails. Recipes and self are wonderfully presented.
Two minutes in and I am remembering how much I miss your cooking videos not just for the fantastic recipes, but for your humour and acknowledging the reality of things like not wanting to dirty yet another measuring cup. Welcome back!
I made these meatballs and they’re the best I’ve made. Thank you for coming back to CZcams. 🥰
Ok, I love your shirt, I love your ring, and love the 20 minute cleaning breaks, and I love you!!!! Balance is restored in the universe....
"Was it the meatballs??" LOVED that Alison! Your friends are definitely KEEPERS! (Unlike the ex, clearly!).
Finally! Someone who uses a baking tray that isn’t pristine like it was just purchased for this episode! Some browning to show that it’s been around and seen some stuff!
“I’m over it.. I’m over it.. *laughs nervously*” 😭😭😂😂
@@alisoneroman We believe you, Alison. Thanks for sharing the story with us, made me laugh and feel that I am going to be fine. Hayde to rewriting the narratives!
So happy you are back!!!
"and you can do it yourself.... because I'm NOT your mom " I love her 😂
My 5 year old daughter proclaimed "this is the best thing I've ever eaten" . Loved making them as well !
"By George, I think she's got it!" Don't know why the glorious return of Alison made this come to mind, but I'm so f*cking happy!!!!!!!!
Omg, thank you for coming back!! 2021 will now be bearable.
Was your life really that bad?? Are you from yemen? 🙂🙂
Doesn't get a speck on her shirt while cooking, immediately spills on herself while eating. I feel seen.
And I was checking out her shirt 👕 most of the time
I made your goodbye meatballs and sauce again last night and it never fails to make me swoon. I let the balls sit in the sauce for an hour on a slow simmer and they were so tender and rich. I rolled them all and cooked what I wanted for two meals, and then froze the rest. So delicious.
We're breaking up. It's not you; it's me. I just can't be with someone whose friends can't make good meatballs. I can't live like this! -He who shall not be named, probably.
I cannot really put into words how happy I am to have your amazing video content back. I have watched your older videos an obscene amount of time during the year which shall not be named. Happy to be back in your kitchen again!
YAY Alison! I’ve been dying for more of your cooking videos! You’ve been helping me through life these days - THANK YOU!
You are my absolute favorite chef! I’ve made four of your recipes (so far) and my husband and I absolutely loved every single one! I’m so excited you’re back
Welcome back queen! We’ve missed you. ❤️❤️❤️
With almost anyone else I watch at 1.25 x speed... but for you, “normal” all the way ❤️
How do you feel about 1.5x speed?
This makes me SO happy!!! I've been rewatching all of your old videos throughout the pandemic and now I get NEW ONES?!?!! So exciting.
My Grandma used to make this sauce! Like a ton of it...and never thought about the amount of prep and work and time she had to put in. Can still remember today that incredible flavour 🤤
Glad to have you back Alison!!
I am so glad this (series) exists -- like a hotshot of serotonin to my braaaaain
David Rose would be thrilled to know this is how you "fold in" when it comes to food
This is great. I found your videos a few months ago and then was immediately sad when I found out there weren't more videos. I've already cooked several of your old recipes so I'm super excited for new ones!
Wait this editing is amazing and meshes perfectly w/ ARome's continual running commentary
This video is pure gold: the talent, the production, the post-production - an inspiration in every category of the work. And the recipe, of course, looks incredible.
Yes!!! So happy you are back! These look delicious I'll be giving them a try!!
Love the way you cook. I first was introduced to you when you made Thanksgiving dinner in your kitchen. I was inspired! Being real and not perfect gives your viewers a relatable experience. Plus, you’re funny, corky and I just love watching your videos. You’ve worked hard to get where you are, enjoy! I actually think being a tester in a test kitchen would be the perfect job! Thank you from an Oregon Mom who loves to cook, bake and eat delicious food.
I am now addicted to your channel Alison. You certainly know your way around the kitchen and those little nuances you add to some classics, love them. Its funny that some of those famous other TV chefs don't even know how to chop onions, but you do. Many thanks.
I was so happy when I checked my email this morning, and read your message that you are back with videos on CZcams. Yay! Move over Friday! Tuesday is now my favorite day of the week. These meatballs look divine. They make me want to break my diet already lol. Can't wait to see what you cook up next Tuesday! Thanks for the yummy foods! :)
So glad you are doing this! I own both your books and would happily watch you cook all those recipes!
YES! So excited and thrilled to have you making videos again! I know the pandemic makes all of this tricky, but your videos are wonderful, humorous, informative. I have been stuck rewatching old episodes until now (because they are just that good!), thanks!!
Alison, I missed you so so much. Thank you for wholesome content, great food and amazing sense of humor and style.
The graphics for converting measurements in your head. SAME 😂
“They are ball in spirit” love it, Alison!
I just wish my audience were more understanding when I say this. 😎
Thank you Alison! I've missed you so much in video form. This is definitely highlight of my day.
Thank you for coming back with more videos! Feeling a little bit like my regular routine is back- watching your videos while cooking :)!
No complaints from me. YOU ARE GREAT!. I missed you. I'm so happy you're back with new videos. Gracias!
Great editing, considering how much amazing footage they probably got from this shoot. Glad to see Alison back.
Thrilled to see you back on CZcams!! I absolutely love your videos (and, of course, your recipes). Keep doing what you’re doing!! ❤️
I’m thrilled to see you on my screen again and not just your books propped up on my counter and your newsletter in my inbox. Thanks for sharing.
Anyone else went on a Alison Roman CZcams bingeing journey after figuring out she started uploading on her own channel? 😂
Good to have you back, I love your recipes!
A new discovery for me! Love this channel. Authentic, entertaining and doesn't waste my time with boring stuff. I love you kitchen. It reminds me of my kitchen in an apartment by the beach where I made anything I could in my little kitchen with a gas stove.
If I had to watch one chef on TV for the rest of my life it would be you I love your recipes I love your sense of humor, your sarcasm! You’re so real and honest and I just I’m obsessed with your CZcams channel!
Love you recipes and so happy to see you back on CZcams! my 2 year old enjoyed watching this recipe with me, she kept pretending to sprinkle salt on things!
Seriously the cutest. Loved watching this.
I’m happy to see you back on CZcams. I missed you and your fun sense of humor and your cooking of course I love your cookbooks. I wish you much success!
I am so glad to watch you cook!! You are so fun and inspiring to me every day, I love all your recipes!!
My face hurt 3 mins into watching this.... realized I had been smiling widely just seeing you back 😁
I don’t know why it took me so long to make these, but they’re the best I’ve ever had and I’ve tied a few! Worth including in your next book in my opinion!
I am so happy to see your channel. I learned to cook my first pasta from watching your videos and then got your new cookbook for Christmas and all the meals they always come out deliciously flawless! Thank you, thank you! ❤️
I missed you! You've taught me so much! Especially about seasoning a dish in layers.
Thank you for coming back!
Missed you Alison Roman 💕
“Was it the meatballs”? Hahaha!! So glad youre back!!! (I swear I’m over it)
Whenever I doubt myself in the kitchen(6 days out of 7), I remember the miracles you do in your small kitchen, and then I order a pizza and pray for this day!!! YES! You back in film form gives me some courage again!! ❤️
Dining In is legit the first and probably only cookbook this guy will ever buy. Never thought I'd buy a cookbook, but your personality and recipes are friggin awesome
Congrats on the new adventure, Alison! And good luck 💗💗
Alison, thank you! I've really missed your amazing recipes and your witty banter and your amazing style! These meatballs made my date and my week!
I was just casually watching youtube and do not know how i ended up here, but I learned to love cooking due to the pandemic so I watched this recipe to maybe put to use in the future. I really loved her personality partnered with top notch editing, so I stayed for the whole video and subbed! Would love to see more recipes in the future!
Everything is right in my world again! So glad you're back...you have been missed by so many! I'm a trauma surgeon & quite honestly a terrible cook, but your videos give me confidence to continue trying! Everything I have made via watching your videos with frequent "pauses" to get myself sorted, have all turned out brilliantly too! Can't thank you enough & I'm genuinely excited about making meatballs now! 😊
New videos every Tuesday?!?!? Um, I’m now extremely happy!!! I mean, I’m still going to keep your Thanksgiving special on replay anyway....but welcome back Alison! ❤️
I have made this recipe before, it was great! A great crowd pleaser.
I recently discovered you and you made me excited about cooking again. Love your recipes and amazing personality 😁😁😁 thank you for all you do❤️
This video is so precious! I loved every aspect and I’m a vegetarian! Thank you Allison for being who you are!
Wow great to see you on your own channel Alison. Always fun to see another BKLN YT show launch. - Eric
Sooo real...can't wait!
@@rachaelgrearson7728 she's not from Bklyn
Okay, I totally agree but, seriously she needs a focus puller.

"I'm going to eyeball this." Love to see it!
I wanted to let you know that many people have missed you and your fantastic recipes! Thanks for delighting us with your videos. Good luck!
So glad You’re back on YT!!!! Absolutely love your recipes and way you explain cooking ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m ecstatic to see you again! My husband will be thrilled so I’ll watch you again with him. 😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰
Some people might ask: "why wouldn't you do this in a food processor?" And that's because euhh... I'm not... gonna do that.
A mood.
Because it's too efforty to clean.

@@SennaAugustus exactly! Why did I spend $100 on a knife that I can wash in a flash...
This is like a show, but seldom with guests and cooking on the side. Don't change a thing! LUV YA ALISON! 🧡💛🧡
So glad you are doing these!!!! Love watching your videos for the food and the witty banter!!!
Meatballs are my love language, thank you! I laughed, I cried . . . truly a full-circle (or "spherical") experience!
Great content, Alison. Terrific editing. And funny.
Not only do we get a great recipe, there is valuable relationship advice as well. Best YT channel ever!
Thank you 2021 for bringing Alison back!
i actually don't think you in particular need as many kitschy edits. you're funny enough on your own!
I found them hilarious.

Everyone's a critic.
It’s amazing how similar your recipe is like my Sicilian grandmother’s and aunts recipes. We par bake first to help remove some grease. Then at halfway point add to the seasoned gravy ! We also stated adding hard boiled eggs to the sauce too , to stretch the dish when broke. Only we started loving the eggs as much . Love the video! I can share yours vs having to keep telling how I do it
Love this! Your personality and recipes are my fave. Thanks for keeping it real!
I stumbled upon Alison and her channel after watching her Baked Ziti video on NYT, and needless to say this woman is a gem - the style of editing, her sense of humour, and the all-around personal touch. Lovely content so far, keep it up!
I love “ bad alison” and I promise to always honour my food preferences x
Is Vinny behind the production of this masterpiece? Because this is giving me “Bon appétit good old days” vibes. Even if he is not involved this is a Smart production choice. it fits her style perfectly.
yay! I couldn't be happier to have Alison back in video form. this was delightful!
Girl, it's been a minute. I really enjoy your channel. Hoping to see more of you this year. Maybe one of these days I'll actually re-create one of your recipes!
SHE IS BACK FINALLY
Hahaa... The beginning is hilarious... F**k the haters/complainers... I love your humour, your rustic style & raspy voice 'which I think is kinda sexy' 'just saying' and not to mention your 'funny pants' lol, oh and of course your recipes... Tre Magnifique. Good to see you back, looking forward to more great recipes.
The best videos! The wit. The sass. The red nails. I am SO HAPPY YOU’RE BACK!!
Alison!! I am so happy you're doing this! We have missed you!
“That’s a meatball, that’s amore” merch please
Yay Alison!!! It’s been too long
Cooking is zen and very therapeutic; I agree with you Alison. Thanks and love your videos!
I'm soooooo happy you're making videos again!! Your recipes are DELISH. Love your sweet kitchen with everything in its place : )))
