  1. Today is miserable and grey and slushy so I am preparing my sauce and meat
    for christmas day. This includes meatballs, sausage and braciole. The way my
    mom (and dad's mom) always prepared it was beef braciole pounded thin,
    parsley, romano cheese, raisins, toasted pignoli - tie the braciole up,
    brown in oo and garlic and cook in sauce. Any tips on tying the braciole
    up? Should I just roll it like a jelly roll and tie from there? It's the
    first time I'm making it w/o coaching :-) Thanks

    sometimes, if mum didn't have any kitchen string on hand, she would just use
    several toothpicks to hold it together

    btw, have to add that she never added raisins or other fruit to her version
    :-)

    Same with my mom's side of the family - we hear the differences every time
    we have braciole. Thanks!

    If you can't figure out the tying knot, I suspect you could run some
    thin metal cooking skewers through it to keep it from unrolling.

    Raisins are the favorite part in my meatballs and braciole. Every once
    in a while I come across someone whose family also used them. Takes me
    back to childhood, it does!

    I'm finding that very few people use them in braciole :-)

    Sadly I haven't had a good bracciola in a long time. I'm wondering,
    what's the best cut of beef to pound out and what's a good traditional
    Italian stuffing for it.
