Doughballs are small, bite-sized portions of bread dough, typically baked or fried until golden and soft. Commonly associated with Italian and Mediterranean cuisines, they are often served as appetizers or sides, paired with dips like garlic butter, marinara sauce, or cheese. Made from flour, water, yeast, salt, and a dash of oil, doughballs are rich in carbohydrates, providing a quick source of energy. While they contain essential nutrients like B vitamins from the flour, their healthiness can be impacted by preparation methods or added toppings. Fried doughballs, for instance, may be higher in unhealthy fats, and sugary or heavy dips can increase calorie content. Opting for whole-grain versions and lighter dips can make them a healthier choice. Fun, versatile, and satisfying, doughballs are a delightful addition to meals, though moderation is key when enjoying them.
