New batch with salt cut to 1/2 cup was much improved, and tasted fine, but Jan commented that she was very thirsty the rest of the night.... So we may have to cut a little more.
Also, this time, I tried a half pound of breadcrumbs instead of the bread. Meatballs were very solid... I think they need the lightness offered by the fresh bread. Maybe we want to try a combination next time.
Lastly, I cut the pepper to .04 and they were still a little peppery.... I'd go for .03 next time around... It's a lot of work to grind anyway...... Note added 2/24/04
8/26/18. Changed recipe consistent with comments above. Even at 1/3 cup salt, Jan felt they were still to salty, so I reduced it to 1/4 cup.
Makes 1 3/4 full sheet pans of meatballs.
