Do you like spaghetti and meatballs? It's an American dish that has spaghetti, tomato sauce, and meatballs
I do! Although, I admit, I mostly just like the meatballs.
Sometimes it is mocked as non-Italian because traditionally, meatballs are only served with egg-based baked pasta
Oh really? I did not know that. I wonder if it's mocked similarly to how Mexican in America isn't really traditional mexican food
Yes, like many American foods, it was created by 20th century Italian immigrants in New York City
Neat! Is there anything else interesting you can tell me?
Well, there are some Apulia dishes where meatballs are baked with rigatoni, mozzarella, tomato sauce, and covered with pastry
That's cool! I do love mozarella :D
Yes, when the New World was discovered, many changes came to Italian cuisine
