About Polpettone
Polpettone is a classic Italian meatloaf dish, often enjoyed as a hearty main course. Traditionally made from a mixture of ground beef and/or pork, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs, and Parmesan cheese, it is seasoned with herbs like parsley and garlic to enhance its rich flavors. Some variations incorporate ingredients such as vegetables, cured meats, or mozzarella for added texture and taste. Polpettone is typically baked and served sliced, complemented by sides like roasted vegetables or tomato-based sauces. While protein-rich due to its meat content, it can also be high in saturated fats and sodium depending on preparation. Healthier versions may use lean meats, whole-grain breadcrumbs, or reduced-fat cheese to lower calorie and fat levels. Its simple yet flavorful composition makes Polpettone a beloved comfort food across Italy and beyond.
