These can also be made right away after mixing by browning in a skillet and finishing in the oven. But letting the mixture sit overnight intensifies the flavor and slow cooking with the sous-vide method makes them so tender.

Ingredients

  1. 1 lbsHot Italian Sausage
  2. 2 lbsGround Beef 85/15
  3. 3 tbspZa'atar
  4. 1 tbspLightly Dried Basil
  5. 1 tbspFresh Rosemary finely chopped
  6. 1 tspCrushed Red Pepper Flakes
  7. 1small Sweet Onion finely chopped
  8. 3 ClovesGarlic finely chopped
  9. 1.5 cupsPlain GF Bread Crumbs
  10. 1/2 cupGrated Parmesan
  11. 2Eggs beaten

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Gently mix the meat together in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix the rest of the ingredients into the meat. Do this gently as well so the meat stays loosely combined. If you squeeze everything together into paste like consistency the meatballs will be tough.

  3. 3

    Fry up a small piece of the mixture to check the flavor. Make any adjustments if needed then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave in the refrigerator overnight. You can skip this step if crunched for time but this helps the flavors all come together.

  4. 4

    Get the sous-vide water bath warming to 145°. At this point you will want use a scoop to form the meatballs and lay out on a baking sheet lined with wax paper.

  5. 5

    Place them into the freezer so they are firm enough to hold their shape when put in the sous-vide bag.

  6. 6

    When the water is up to temp vacuum seal the meatballs you're going to make for dinner. Submerge in the water and set the timer for 1.5 hours.

  7. 7

    Get sauce heating on the stove, homemade or favorite jarred brand.

  8. 8

    When the time is up pour the meatballs and juices into the sauce and let simmer for about 20 minutes.

  9. 9

    Serve on a fresh made bun with melted provolone or over noodles.

I have always been in love with flavor combinations even before I was allowed to use the stove by myself. I would come home from school and test out what was on hand with what I could maybe cook in the microwave. Little did I know I was starting down a life long journey of exploring flavors and recipes that I love and share with the people I care the most about.https://www.instagram.com/theeclecticcook/https://pin.it/vuncaiso65qrkl
