What Meat Are Italian Meatballs Made Of?
Italian meatballs are traditionally made with ground beef, but can also be made with a mix of ground beef, veal, and pork. The mixture is combined with breadcrumbs, eggs, Parmesan cheese, herbs, and spices before being rolled into balls and cooked in a tomato-based sauce. Some variations may also include different types of meat or seasonings, depending on the region or personal preference.
