The ingredient amounts (also in grams) are right in the description and the print recipe is linked there as well. As always, thanks for liking our recipes and videos and sharing our family table each week.

I love how your videos are detailed yet quick and concise. They’re very “to the point.” You provide basic information without assuming the viewer is an idiot. Also, I enjoy the format and the way you quickly explain what is used and what you’re going to do then actually showing us the process. Thank you! I love your content.

I am assuming if the wine and brandy is removed the stock amount increases. Also unsure why you use chicken stock instead of beef?

TRY THIS -To turn the Garlic into a paste - put the garlic cloves in a coffee cup and put them in the microwave for about 30-35 seconds then smash them with your knife - the garlic will be soft.

Tara's critique is very helpful. She can provide a more thoughtful assessment of the dish and the ingredient amounts. I adore James' reviews because, as a kid, his reviews inform the cook whether or not a kid will eat it. Nevertheless, Tara gave excellent critique. Good video. Thanks!

@BigboiiTone 6 месяцев назад

she's so awesome. i love how she was standing by with the breadcrumbs when the meatball mix was too wet. It was like super Tara to the rescue

@Jacket84 6 месяцев назад

James' reviews let the cook know if HE would eat it, or likes it. he doesn't speak for all kids. there are lots of things i eat now, as an adult, that i thought were disgusting when i was a kid. and vice versa. i love to cook. but 9.9/10 times, i'm cooking for myself. that being said, sometimes i go back to box basics and make a simple hamburger helper. i like it. doesn't mean everyone else does.

Finally someone who honestly admits caramalized unions take a very long time to make. I always hear people talking about "20 or something minutes" and I think I'm crazy. This alone makes this the best cooking channel on youtube, period.

I make a huge batch of meatballs and freeze some for future recipes. 1lb. ground beef, 1lb ground pork, 1 lb of veal, egg, milk, breadcrumbs, onion, salt, pepper, parsley, Italian seasoning, splash of Worcestershire sauce and splash of soy sauce. Bake at 350° for about 40-45 minutes.

@kenthawley5990 5 месяцев назад

Just made these. The only alterations were based on Tara's recommendations-- put Thyme only in the meatballs, and added three Tbsp of brandy and used extra sharp white cheddar. They are fantastic!

@TheBigdutchster 6 месяцев назад

I feel that I would like it saucier and served over egg noodles. I agree with Tara about the cheese, as I have grown older, I like bolder flavors. I would also use beef stock rather than the chicken stock, which I feel was a bit of a weird choice.

@shadowcatX2000 6 месяцев назад

Agreed, chicken stock caught me by surprise. I wonder if chicken stock might have been why he put so much thyme into the dish, I don't really associate thyme with beefy flavors. I think if I were doing this I would use a mix of the onion and the garlic better than bullion options, as I don't really care for their beef option.

@texasstardust6010 5 месяцев назад

@@shadowcatX2000.....I was married to a Chef, and there are many instances where Chix Stock ( or Broth, etc ) csn be used eith Beef, because it actually " brings out " more flavour of the Beef. However, you can also use a combination of both the Beef and Chix. .. There are many Recipes that be interchanged with the two types of Stock/ Broth , if you didn't have Beef stock, you could use Chix ,no problem. ....and he's using wayyyy too much Thyme in this. Lol.. too overpowering. ...I knew that without Taras' critique. I also agree with the other Commnter,.. more sauce ..it looks dry ( just IMHO) .. because it would be delish served over the Noodles - as was suggested by the Comment- or even rice. I also would have done the bread differently... lightly toasted / grilked on each side first ,then add the cheese .

@sarahwieland3243 5 месяцев назад

I agree, right off the bat when he said chicken stock I was wondering why one would use chicken stock for a beef dish? The only reason I would use chicken stock with beef is if I had none. The egg noodles r a wonderful finishing touch of the dish.

@RobinLNJ 6 месяцев назад

Consider reducing labor by caramelizing the onions the day before in a crock pot. I’ve done it by mixing in olive oil and salt and loading the pot to the top. Stir very occasionally and expect it to take pretty much all day or overnight.

@tammyschilling5362 6 месяцев назад

This remind me of a dish my grandfather used to make that he called 'old fashioned hamburgers'. It was small burgers, dredged in flour, then fried in the pan. When the burgers were done, he would add onions and mushrooms, and brown them and then make a pan gravy. That whole things got served over mashed potatoes. This reminds me a lot of that, but without the wine and thyme.

Also did the red wine, cognac and generous on the fresh thyme. Only thing I thought of while I was eating some was it might also be nice to add whole mushrooms, I'd saute them in a separate pan and add to the onion/wine sauce at same time as meatballs. Did use gruyere as my cheese, very nice.

@janellek21 6 месяцев назад

I usually use matzo meal instead of breadcrumbs in my meatloaf/meatballs. I find it makes for a lighter meatball with a toastier flavour. I also always wear hospital gloves when I'm mixing meat - the smooth latex makes it easier to shape the meatballs, and you don't have to waste time and water scrubbing the bits of meat from under your fingernails.

I microwave onions in a glass measuring bowl with a little olive oil. It takes like 5 minutes and makes them sweeter-especially Vidalia. Then you can brown them if you want-or not if using in a different recipe. They can be used in all sorts of dishes throughout the week.

I almost clicked away when I heard tiktok but my mom said she wanted to watch. Im glad we are watching because I have some of that ground beef. I actually like it more than the "chub" cylinder shaped units. With the squared units, obviously you can stack them effeciently, but I like how easily you can pat an entire side dry at a time. This surface area also allows for better colour in the searing stage

@shortlivedglory3314 5 месяцев назад

A great trick is mixing some baking soda in with the first batch of water you add to the onions. It greatly reduces the time required for browning them.
