Tender Italian meatballs with rich tomato sauce from The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through Science (page 538) by J. Kenji López-Alt

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute ground lamb for ground beef chuck.

    Flavour-packed. Off @Rachaelsb’s note, I erred on cooking the meatballs a bit longer than indicated, so avoided disintegration, but this did compromise the tenderness promised in the title.

    Very labor intensive and while taste was great...completely fell apart on me when added to sauce. My guess is that bread soaked in buttermilk too much???
