    You can use onion. Just not too much. My Mom sometimes ads a liittle bit of onion and my grandma did the same. yYou don;t want too much onion because it overpowers the flavour. But just enough to give a hint of flavour and "sweetness" to it is okay.

    Close. Leave out the oregano and add minced garlic and some finely-chopped fresh parsley. And adding an egg will help it hold together.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Uh, I think I should be insulted by that but, being Italian, I'm not smart enough to be sure. However, be aware that my cousin Vinnie will be paying you a visit to "discuss" the matter further.

    Meh. I'll take Vinnie down to Sabatino's for Osso Buco and a bottle of good Chianti and all will be well.
