I love listening to Anne explain her cooking methods. She's such a great teacher.

[@BabyZoidBerg]

I remember watching her since 2010 food channel when I was a kid

[@bigjake55555]

Well stated ! She is an amazing teacher

[@JWParkerPhDDDiv]

and messes everything up with pickles. she shouldn't be teaching if this is her logic.

[@lunch7213]

Pickles and meatballs go together beautifully *SINCE WHEN*

[@an-na7204]

As an Italian it made me cringe

[@gabrieldiniz8371]

I think the logic is that pickles go well in burgers, and a burger patty and a meatball are basically the same

[@paulg6527]

@@an-na7204 I've never heard that before either.

[@torgiebride8558]

Anne Burrell has been classically trained IN Italy! 😅 (Not arguing anything, I just found this a bit funny knowing that.)

[@hv9988]

Slavic countries (border the north east of italy) use pickles and meat in dishes. I'm thinking of things like sloyanka. I'd imagine that North Eastern italy starts to pull in some slavic flavors. So I totally get where she's coming from, though it's way more if a slavic thing vs an Italian thing.

[@ronhanisco8697]

"A chef facial." LMAO!

I would love love love to hang out wiht Anne and learn to cook from her. She is one of my all time favrites on the Food Network.

The music is more important.

[@egyptiansushi]

This is a special feature that wasn't shown in the real episode, in the episode it's this cut down to just a few seconds with voice over

[@matthewgalati1870]

This title is wrong. This is a meat sauce not a marinara sauce . Marinara sauce contains no meat at all.

[@patricklarry6645]

You can tell a great chef by the amount of salt and oil they use. Ann is one of the greats!

[@angelasieg5099]

I love to watch Anne cook I don't use hot peppers due to an allergy but still love her recipes I just adapt the spiciness

[@jblyon2]

PICKLES?!?! AND GRAY MEATBALLS!

[@elinaolsson6420]

Pickles goes very well with meatballs. Meatballs with potatoes, gravy, lingonberry jam and pickles is a very traditional dish in Sweden.

[@lunch7213]

Meatballs, fresh ricotta, marinara. What about this screams Swedish to you

[@williamolesen5505]

@@lunch7213 Did you even try to read the comment before posting? She literally described a Swedish dish. Meatballs with potatoes, gravy, lingonberry jam, and pickles screams Swedish to her, not fresh ricotta and marinara

[@midnightdreams519]

Tester patty, so smart! Love Anne!!!!!

[@DavidAudreyHidalgoDulay]

People are surprised with meatballs and pickles being eaten together. I mean...burger patties are just balls of meat that have been flattened so???

[@jazbarry13]

I like pickles. Though I don't traditionally eat them with meatballs, I'd be willing to give this a try. Then I'll decide.

[@moxxistrokes]

Am i the only one who supports a pickle topping. Normally I get a slide wedge of dill in my meatball sub from Cheba hut 🍁 I support this dish and will be making it soon :)

[@MonicaASMR]

Yummy 🙌Looks great! 🤤👍

[@vonelders]

[@shack276]

[@dmac7406]

Stock is better to use over water when making a tomato sauce .

[@iblong9505]

Nice preparation and instruction. But, pickles? Classic meatballs with pickles? No.

[@lqkim9756]

With the pickles, it's basically a deconstructed hamburger.

[@Passionforfoodrecipes]

Uuuuugggggghhhhhhh

[@erikachristen601]

No disrespect to chef Anne, I think she’s amazing but...”Pickles and meatballs go together beautifully”, said no Italian person ever...

[@tgcv4444]

Delicious.

[@organs]

Pickles…? No. No pickles. And ideally, you gently brown the meatballs in olive oil and they cook the rest of the way in the sauce, which is oddly missing basil.

[@infamuznoush]

Exactly. This is some random Americanized version of a classic dish. I can't imagine it tasted any good tbh. I've made lots of tomato sauces and it needs a lot more than just onions and salt.

[@bibivermeulen2550]

Thank god somebody said ... I'm shocked about almost everything about this dish

[@carolynpicken6949]

Not sure about the pickles..which I love...but not with meatballs

[@donnacappuccitti138]

Love Anne!

[@jungcooking]

Looks great !!! 🤤

[@aceTL87]

Not sure about the pickles; would make me think I'm eating a burger. Pickles and ricotta cheese together doesn't sound that good either.

[@silverdawn813]

it's not that far off from swedish meatballs with lingonberries

[@danielthompson2424]

Pickles with the meatballs just when I talk this was gonna be a badass dish

[@robertschrader]

[@kevinn4393]

Pickles Really lol WTF 🤔

[@mindygeist7157]

Thanks for the video!How can you fix or prevent the reactive flavor from the tomatoes in certain pans?

[@Robinedghill]

Add sugar

[@Daramgaria]

@@Robinedghill No. The reactive flavor comes from cooking in cast iron, carbon steel, copper, and unandonized aluminum pans. Consider using either a stainless steel, nonstick, or an andonized aluminum pan for anything acidic. If you are using these reactive pan surfaces, a good layer of polymerized oil can protect against the acid, but it is just easier to use one of the aforementioned metals instead. Acidic tastes can be fixed with longer cooktimes and a pinch of sugar, not a reactive one.

[@CallduhAmberLamp]

Just google it
