To many Italian families, spaghetti sauce is a very personal and regional thing. My mother's family came from Abruzzi and were pig farmers. We start our sauce by browning country style spare ribs in olive oil, garlic and minced onion. We've been doing it that way since at least 1904.

I've never really been good at making meatballs. Sometimes I cheat and buy them already made. Or just use ground beef, sausage, or tofu.


Excuse me?

10 lbs of lean ground beef
mix in lots of oregano, sage, garlic and onion, plus some basil
form into thumbjoint-sized meatballs
pressure cook
cool
remove grease
save aspic for sauce
crumble the meatballs into smaller fragments

three to five yellow, red, orange, green bell peppers, diced or sliced
half to three quarters of a celery bunch, diced with all the celery leaf
two to three large onions diced
large bunch of cilantro, minced
gently saute veggies in large pot (or two large pots) in olive oil


Oh marone!

no no no no no, you add some milk to the meatballs for moisture and you have to add eggs and either fresh or canned breadcrumbs.

And screw the "veggies" wtf? you add onion, garlic and that's it, no celery no peppers etc.

1. Polish Spaghetti

It's an experiment. I'm making a sauce with leftover fresh and smoked kielbasa. I'll probably use some cabbage, onions and green peppers, along with a can of crushed tomatoes and some red wine. Hope it turns out okay--it's for our monthly pot luck dinner.

 :lmao: :rotf:  Cabbage and kielbasa in the spaghetti sauce?  Oh my Lord.  And she means to present it to others for actual consumption! 

I must have ESP or something.  Just this morning, the thought popped into my head again, "why is the DUmmie going to the trouble of making little meatballs, if it's just going to break them up?"

22. It turned out great!

Very hearty. I added red & white wine. Unfortunately only a couple people showed up. So I have a ton of leftovers.

They were forewarned.   :lmao:
