SMALL TAGLIATELLE TIMBALES
The long journey of meatballs has crossed countries and centuries. It is believed that from ancient Persia, they spread throughout the Middle East and then probably landed in Spain, ready to conquer every European country and every cuisine, including ours, generation after generation. The reason for the success of meatballs is certainly not difficult to understand: they are simple, incredibly tasty, inexpensive, and fun. And with their round shape… one leads to another!
