Steps:
- 1. Heat the oven to 325°F. Put the fresh bread in a bowl, cover it with water, and let it soak for a minute or so. Pour off the water and wring out the bread, then crumble and tear it into tiny pieces.
- 2. Combine the bread with all the remaining ingredients except the tomato sauce in a medium mixing bowl, adding them in the order they are listed. Add the dried bread crumbs last to adjust for wetness: the mixture should be moist wet, not sloppy wet.
- 3. Shape the meat mixture into handball-sized meatballs and space them evenly on a baking sheet. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. The meatballs will be firm but still juicy and gently yielding when they're cooked through. (At this point, you can cool the meatballs and hold them in the refrigerator for as long as a couple of days or freeze them for the future.)
- 4. Meanwhile, heat the tomato sauce in a sauté pan large enough to accommodate the meatballs comfortably.
- 5. Dump the meatballs into the pan of sauce and nudge the heat up ever so slightly. Simmer the meatballs for half an hour or so (this isn't one of those cases where longer is better) so they can soak up some sauce. Keep them there until it's time to eat.
- 6. Serve the meatballs 3 to a person in a healthy helping of the red sauce, and hit everybody's portion-never the pan-with a fluffy mountain of grated cheese. Reserve the leftover tomato sauce (it will be super-extra-delicious) and use it anywhere tomato sauce is called for in this book.

MEATBALLS WITH RAISINS
----- Purpette a la Passula ----- Raisins in meatballs originated in Southern Italy, probably in either Sicily or Calabria. In Sicily, and (I expect) Calabria the use of raisins and pine nuts came from contact with Arabs, who use them extensively (remember that Sicily was an Arab Province for a time). Though the Arabs never dominated further north you do find raisins in savory recipes in old cookbooks. For example, raisins and pine nuts are included in a Roman sauteed spinach. Now you get garlic and salt, and perhaps a little red pepper. Though this might sound somewhat unlikely, it is quite traditional. The recipe is Calabrian.

Steps:
- PREPARATION:.
- Soak bread in milk then drain it well.
- Soak the raisins in warm water for a half hour to revive them. Grind the meat and combine it with the bread, eggs, cheese, and parsley, seasoning to taste with salt. Make your meatballs, including a couple of raisins in the heart of each one. Sauté the meatballs in the olive oil, turning them so they brown on all sides, and when they're done stir in a cup or so of tomato sauce and heat through. Serve accompanied by broccoli rabe, and a moderately tannic red wine.

- Pour the tomatoes into a large enameled cast-iron casserole and crush them. Add the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a bowl, soak the bread in water until saturated. Squeeze out the water and transfer the bread to a large bowl. Mash the bread to a paste and stir in the eggs, garlic, parsley, marjoram, 1 tablespoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Mash until smooth. Add the chuck, currants, pine nuts and cheese and mix until combined. Add the bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon at a time, and knead until the mixture is firm enough to roll. Form the mixture into 36 meatballs (about 3 tablespoons each), tucking in the currants and pine nuts.
- In a large, nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil until shimmering. Add the meatballs in 2 batches and fry over moderate heat, turning, until browned and cooked through, about 12 minutes per batch. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meatballs to a plate. Add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for 30 minutes. Serve in bowls, passing more cheese at the table.

- Preheat oven to 550 degrees or as hot as possible, a convection oven is even better. Oil a large rimmed sheet pan.
- Meatballs: Place all meatball ingredients in a stand mixer; mix with paddle attachment slowly for 2-3 minutes until completely incorporated, or place into a large bowl and mix by hand.
- Refrigerate meatball mixture for 15-30 minutes, making it easier to roll into meatballs. Use an ice cream scoop to make meatballs for uniformity and if possible, use a scale to weigh 1 or 2. Best range is 2.4-2.6 oz. for full size, 1.25 oz. for appetizer size.
- Gently roll until round and place them side by side on the sheet pan. Bake for 10 minutes; remove; allow to cool to room temperature, unless the sauce has already been prepared. Then just spoon the cooked meatballs directly into the sauce and simmer for 45 minutes.

- Pound out beef into 4 equal pieces roughly 1/4" thick. Using plastic wrap on bottom and top of meat makes it easy to flatten meat and avoid a mess. A good size for the meat is 5" by 7". This allows for an easy roll up and ability to tie them up like in the picture.
- Arrange the 4 pieces of meat out on a cutting board and spread a 1/4 of the garlic paste on each piece. Next, sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
- You should have a thin layer of the mixture on each of the 4 pieces. Roll them up tightly and tie kitchen twine around them to keep them together. Don't be shy with the twine, it will all be taken off before the meat is served. Toothpicks can also be used.

- In a medium bowl, combine the lamb, lightly beaten eggs, parsley, smashed garlic clove, zest, onion, flour, and seasonings. Mix well, then cover and set aside for about 15 minutes. This allows the almond flour to absorb some of the liquid.
- Meanwhile, using the same skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sautee for about 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the tomatoes and cook together for another 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are softened and beginning to simmer. Season with salt.

- Meanwhile, in a large nonstick frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderate heat. Sprinkle the mackerel with ¼ teaspoon each of the salt and pepper.
- Cook the fish for 2 to 3 minutes per side for ½-inch thick fillets until just done. Remove the fish and then wipe out the pan. When the fish is cool enough to handle, discard the skin and flake the fish.
- In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes until starting to soften. Add the pine nuts and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes until starting to brown.
