Directions
Polpette Alla Casalinga, This recipe for meatballs is the best that I have discovered It came from the cookbook, The Cooking of Italy It actually is a Time-Life book, that has amazing information on the history of Italian cooking along with the regional applications My ex mother in-law, who was born and raised in Italy says it’s pretty accurate She was and still is an amazing cook and baker at the age of 88 I still call her for help on recipes Whoever tries this recipe, I hope you enjoy these meatballs as much as my family does , I originally got this recipe from the actual cookbook 31 years ago I’ve been making it ever since My extra large family and I love it! I triple the recipe , I actually use a tablespoon of Nature’s Seasoning per batch for extra spice
