Sweet and sour meatballs is a favorite Chinese food dish. Jelly meatballs is a favorite appetizer, a staple of holiday parties and celebrations. But perhaps the world's favorite meatball, especially in the west, is the, spaghetti meatball. Although China invented spaghetti, Italy is now the home of spaghetti with the main accompaniment of the spaghetti meatball. Although many people love to eat this timeless comfort food, surprisingly even fewer people know how to cook meatballs. There's almost as many ways and techniques to making meatballs as there are meatballs.
