What's the difference between italian style meatballs and regular meatballs?

American meatballs are the largest in size, with Italian and Swedish meatballs following the depth chart. In Italy, on the other hand, meatballs are traditionally served as an appetizer, appetizer or between courses, alone without sauce. This is very different from how they are enjoyed in the United States, where they are normally served with pasta and red sauce. And if you're looking for that classic and comforting dish, be sure to try them at one of the best Italian restaurants in the United States.

Here's an excellent classic Italian-style meatball recipe that my husband Jack has refined over the years.
