With all the odd aromatic spices this has got to have originated in Portugal. They always put those critical spices in all the wrong locations and at inopportune times. Now temporarily laying that aside..that is a real solid recipe. Few minor tweaks it sounds sorta like my grand prize winning meatball recipe..which was gave to me by a nice Roman Catholic Eyetalian Lady from Noo Yawk City. Now that one will make a person chunk rocks at Portugese stuff. I give out that recipe free with only five bucks to cover the shipping and handling. Let me know. Thanks.
