Our Italian family secret (I think other Italian families do the same) is that instead of bread crumbs, you actually use day-old Italian bread. You want it to be sort of hard, and you dip the bread in luke-warm water. Then you squeeze the excess water out, remove the crust, and break the soggy bread into small pieces into your meat mixture. This trick always results in moist, less hard meatballs! Spoken from a true Italian stallion :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10335978036418201839noreply@blogger.com
