I only ordered pizza once in CA. That didn't go so well. Took about two
hours to get it and it was awful. We did get pizza at various places but I
don't recall any green olives.

There's meat ball soup but not meat ball stew... if the meat balls
aren't braised then they can't properly be called stewed. Every meat
ball dish I've seen with liquid the meatballs were already cooked with
direct heat and then added to the liquid for a relatively short time
simply to heat through. However there are braised ground meat dishes;
ie. stuffed peppers, stuffed cabbage, stuffed grape leaves, wontons,
etc, but those are NOT meat-a-balles.

Well, sometimes the edge of a fork can serve as a knife.
I've never eaten stew with a spoon... if it can be eaten with a spoon
then it's definitely a soup.

CA puts thoe mission olives in eveything, because that's the only
place they're made and they're a goodly part of the CA economy.

One of my rules is that I don't partake in the discussions on what
things should be named. The saves me a heck of a lot of time! Thank God

If you've been paying attention you'd have noticed I never engage in
discussion, I make statements of fact and move on.

I am guessing that you have not tried Italian Wedding soup. It has
meatballs in it, and it is delicious.

We are getting close to the Goulash zone. Is it a soup or a stew?

Yep, I love that stuff. I've had "wedding soup" at a couple of Italian
restaurants and it was delicious.

The real problem is gtr was trying to help Julie. She said the only
beef she can digest is ground beef. So, the suggestion was to make
meatballs. (Come to think of it, she mentioned hamburger soup once upon
a time.) sf mentioned Albondigas, which is another soup (Mexican, fits
the topic even!) featuring meatballs. But Julie didn't ask for help or
suggestions.

Quite often your statements are incorrect. When somebody proves
that, we don't hear a peep from you. You've already moved on, of
course

I often put ground beef in soup but I can't eat meatballs because they
contain eggs. I have tried making them without and they really don't work.
But that's okay because meatballs were never a favorite soup. Pretty sure
that I never mentioned anything called hamburger soup. I did mention meat
soup. My mom only called it that. It was hamburger gravy and she told me
that it was soup as she had nothing to serve it over. Then when I asked her
for meat soup for dinner, she hadn't a clue what I was talking about. I
described it and she laughed.

I frequently make meatballs without eggs because I don't feel any need
to. I will use breadcrumbs soaked in water though. The mixture is worked
by hand until it's all pasty with no air pockets. The result is a
tender, even textured, meatball. If you can't add breadcrumbs - then I
guess you're plum out of luck. That would be a very sad thing.

You're not addressing the topic, the meatballs aren't cooked in the
soup so they don't qualify as stewed meatballs, they are cooked by
direct heat and then added to the soup later as a separate
ingredient... like meatball topping on pizza... the meatballs are
fully cooked prior to being used as a topping. There's no such thing
as stewed meatballs, were raw meatballs added to say a tomato sauce
and simmered for a while they'd dissolve into the sauce, you'd have
meat sauce but no meatballs.
I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this but all the dago wedding
soups I found on line call for cooking the meat-a-balles separately
and then adding them to the finished soup just prior to serving...
like matzo balls are added to chicken soup.
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/g...up-recipe.html
http://barefootcontessa.com/recipes....cipeID=393&S=0
Once again, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS STEWED MEATBALLS.
This topic just proves to me that NONE of yoose cook anything, nothing
whatsoever, all fast food joint addicts, and you, Dave Smith (whatever
your real name is), especially. Dave Smith is a phoney baloney name
and it's a total phoney baloney, I never believe a word it posts.

added to the soup, there are NO stewed meat balls[period]

It's one the types of decorative corn I see at the grocery store in
the Fall. Didn't know what it was called though.

Slowly you're learning, however every word I post is absolute fact...
there is no such thing as stewed meatballs... Bruthie is another lying
POS FAGGOT who has never cooked anything, a 400 pound blob who
subsists by frequenting fast food drive thrus and by TV dinner
piggery.

WTF are you on about? You said you don't think meatballs belong in soup
and I pointed out a very tasty soup that has meatballs. I did not say it
was stew

Curiously, when U Googled for recipes for Italian Wedding soup recipes,
one of the first four hits called for baking the meatballs. The other
three said cook the meatballs in the soup.

Hedgehogs (i.e., meatballs with rice in them) are usually stewed. One example recipe:
http://www.kidspot.com.au/kitchen/re...-meatballs-819

Lion's head meatballs are usually stewed:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion%27s_head_(food)

(As for knife and fork, there are probably more stews eaten with spoon and fingers or spoon and chopsticks than with knife and fork - lots of people in China, India (and other parts of Asia), and Africa who don't use knives and forks for everyday eating.)

You gotta love it JohnJohn. Sheldon pays almost no attention to anything.
Anyone who didn't have a rotted out mind would figure that it's unlikely
that you weigh half that much, and VERY unlikely that you do drive thrus
or TV dinners.

Sheldon is the paradigm Donald Trump supporter.
