Cod Liver and Cottage Cheese Balls
Description
Perfect with the table and with drinks. For preparing the appetizer, choose moist cottage cheese so that it holds together well in a ball. Purchase cod liver at the supermarket; you can also buy walnut kernels there. If you are allergic to them, replace the nuts with breadcrumbs or crushed salted crackers. Serve the appetizer at the table.
