Tips:
- Use a variety of meats. Ground beef, pork, and veal are all classic choices for meatballs, but you can also use lamb, turkey, or chicken. Mixing different meats can create a more complex and flavorful meatball.
- Don't overwork the meat. Overworking the meat will make the meatballs tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Use fresh bread crumbs. Fresh bread crumbs will help to keep the meatballs moist and tender. You can make your own bread crumbs by drying out bread cubes in the oven or in a food processor.
- Add some moisture. Adding a little bit of milk, broth, or water to the meatball mixture will help to keep them moist. You can also add grated vegetables, such as onions, carrots, or celery.
- Season the meatballs well. Use a variety of herbs and spices to season the meatballs. Some classic choices include garlic, onion, parsley, basil, oregano, and thyme.
- Brown the meatballs before simmering them. Browning the meatballs will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from falling apart.
- Use a good quality brandy. The brandy you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the meatballs. Choose a brandy that is smooth and flavorful.
- Simmer the meatballs for at least 30 minutes. This will help to tenderize the meatballs and allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the meatballs with a variety of dipping sauces. Some popular choices include tomato sauce, marinara sauce, or horseradish sauce.
