INGREDIENTS

4 oz Prosciutto, in one piece
4 oz Pancetta, in one piece
2 Italian sausages without
fennel seed
4 T Unsalted butter
4 Extra-large eggs
3/4 c Bread crumbs, unseasoned
5 T Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt & black pepper to taste
4 qt Chicken broth
8 T Unsalted butter
1/2 lb Mascarpone
1/2 c Heavy cream
Salt & black pepper to taste
1 pn Freshly grated nutmeg
8 T Parmesan cheese, grated

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the prosciutto and pancetta into small pieces and remove the
casing from the sausages. Using a meat grinder, grind together the
prosciutto, pancetta, and sausages. Place the ground meat in a
crockery or glass bowl, add the butter and eggs, and mix very well
with a wooden spoon until the butter is completely incorporated. Add
the bread crumbs and Parmesan, and season with salt and pepper. Cover
the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.  When ready,
bring the broth to a boil in a large pot over medium heat.  Meanwhile,
place a large skillet with the butter over low heat. When  the broth
reaches a boil, start shaping the meat mixture into tiny  meat balls; a
heaping tablespoon of mixture will be enough to prepare  several. Make
sure the meat balls are solid with no holes inside.  Drop the balls
into the boiling broth a few at a time, and as they  rise to the top,
tansfer them with a slotted spoon to the skillet  containing the
butter. When all the meat balls are cooked and in the  skillet, add the
mascarpone and heavy cream. Mix very well and simmer  for 1 or 2
minutes, or until the mascarpone is completely dissolved.  Season with
salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Mix very well, then transfer to  a warmed
serving platter. Serve immediately, with some Parmesan on  the side.
