    The technique of adding a bit of sauce to the saucier, then the pasta, then the starchy water…seems good when cooking for 1-3, but how did grandma do that for 10 people?

    Very nice. I like the use of the ricotta in the meatballs instead of milk that I was taught to use and have been doing for 30 years. Other than that, our meatballs are almost exact. With that said, I also liked how you were overly word and self-indulgent. A lot of people talk to hear the sound of their own voice. You were very direct . I will follow you and watch your other videos. I'm sure I will learn some more tips and see some interesting recipes. Caio.

    I am 75 years old and I remember my great-grandmother who is 90 explaining why it was called Sunday, "gravy". It was modeled after a Neapolitan Ragu. At the turn of the 20th Century, Italian immigrants could only eat in the middle of the day with their families on Sunday because they worked 6 days a week. In Italy, everybody ate with her family in the middle of the day 7 days a week. Most of the immigrants were too poor to eat meat every day so their pasta was made mainly meatless. They saved the meat for the Sunday gravy or sauce as you prefer to call it. Always cooked on Saturday and it took all day. Years is almost identical to ours and every detail including the ricotta. We used pork neck bones but I do love the short ribs too.

    Okay why do you wait so long to add the sausage and meatballs. What difference does it make. Btw love your show but very different from my wife Nona’s recipe. Sausage and meatballs go in at the beginning. My meatballs learned from a little Italian lady. 2 parts beef to 1 part pork. Cream lots of parsley olive oil oregano basil eggs and the rest of the stuff you added

    I grew up eating it every Sunday. My mother cooking, listening to dean martin. Dad in the yard working in the garden. Almost exactly how we make it. Never thought of ricotta in the meatballs!! I’ll have to try it one time. Have you ever had meatballs with Pignole nuts? If not. Try it !
