Rigatoni with Turkey Meatballs
Pasta and meatballs is an Italian American classic. You won’t find it in Italy. Italian immigrants added meat to their sauce to enhance the tomatoes they found in America, which had less flavor than those grown under the Vesuvius volcano. In Italy, meatballs are eaten separately from pasta. Pasta with meatballs was on the menus of my early restaurants, and I really grew to love it. When my kids were in school, for Family Food Day, you brought in an ethnic dish. I initially sent in something traditional, like a pasticciata, but what the kids really all wanted was meatballs. Buon Appetito! #LidiasRecipes #LidiasItaly #LidiasKitchen #LidiaBastianich #ItalianFood
