    How To Make Meatballs

    Recipe





    Meatballs are a hearty addition to pasta dishes, soups, sauces, and sandwiches. Their preparation is hands-on; use your hands to form them into rounds of a desired size. Freeze cooked meatballs to add them to a favorite sauce at a later time.
    Other ingredients that you can be use for meatballs include turkey, chicken, lamb, and fish.

    Tips for Flavorful Meatballs


    Use beef with a bit of fat to keep meatballs from being dry and tasteless.

    Add flavorful spices, aromatics, and other ingredients to meatball mixtures, including parsley, oregano, garlic, nutmeg, onion, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, cheese, and shallots. Cooking the onions and garlic before adding them to the mixture helps bring out their flavor.


    Milk and eggs make meatballs moist.
    Season the meatball mixture with salt and pepper. A good way to test the seasoning is by poaching or frying a sample. Adjust the seasoning as necessary.


    Sautéing meatballs before adding them to a sauce or soup forms a crust, which helps keep them from falling apart.
