Personal Notes:
When I started reading recipes I noticed the Italians used a lot of veal in their recipes.I stuck with my basic recipe replacing the Pork with veal which has a different texture and taste.
My first batches were bland so I adjusted the seasoning and cooked small batches to taste.
Again did I say I love meatballs?
