4 slices fresh white bread, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, finely diced

Time 1h40m

Yield 24 meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large onion, finely diced
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 pound ground pork shoulder
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
2 28-ounce cans whole San Marzano tomatoes, crushed by hand
2 pounds ground pork shoulder
Kosher salt
3 to 4 pickled hot cherry peppers, minced, plus 2 to 3 tablespoons pickling liquid from the jar
4 slices white bread, finely chopped
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Polenta, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and 2 teaspoons salt; cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until the oil is red, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the pork and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the meat is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the crushed tomatoes and their juices and 1 cup water to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced by one-third, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the meatballs: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Mix the ground pork, 1 tablespoon salt, the cherry peppers and their pickling liquid, the bread and eggs with your hands until combined. Roll into 24 golf ball-size meatballs.
  • Coat a rimmed baking sheet with the olive oil, then put the meatballs on it and bake until firm and cooked through, about 14 minutes; let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet.
  • Divide the meatballs among bowls and top with the sauce. Serve with polenta, if desired.
