I use parmigana cheese. Cheers,
PARMESAN-HERB MEATBALLS AND TOMATO
SAUCE
MEATBALLS:
1 c. bread crumbs, Italian flavored
2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
1 sm. onion, quartered
12 oz. ground beef (use lean beef)
2 eggs
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (2 tsp. dried parsley)
2 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. dried basil
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 c. olive oil
SAUCE:
3 c. beef broth (canned is fine)
1 (28 oz.) can whole tomatoes
2 tbsp. double-concentrated tomato paste or 1 sm. can regular tomato paste
1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1 1/2 tsp. dried basil
1 1/2 tsp. dried marjoram
1 1/2 tsp. sugar
In a food processor fitted with metal blade, process the bread crumbs, garlic and onion until finely chopped. Add the beef and eggs, the Parmesan cheese, herbs and salt. Process until well blended.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil on moderate to high heat. Moisten your hands and shape the mixture into 1 1/2 inch meatballs, carefully adding them to the skillet without overcrowding. Saute until meatballs are evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Pour off any extra fat from the skillet.
Add the broth to skillet and gently boil. Stir and scrape the bottom of the pan with a slotted spoon to dissolve pan deposits. Add tomatoes, breaking them apart with your hands. Stir in remaining ingredients. Return meatballs to skillet and gently boil until the sauce is thickened, approximately 15 to 20 minutes at least. Serve over cooked pasta Serves 4-6.

The melted stuff? Can either be Mozzarella (most common) or Provolone. The other cheese is either Parmigano Reggiano or Romano.

I would think parmesan cheese is used. use a cheese grater; don't buy the grated cheese you sprinkle on food. that would be the melted cheese you speak of.

Parmesean Cheese - I would suggest a nice Parmeseano Reggiano.

Usually is mozzarella ! ! !
But you can put the one that you like the most.. I've used pepper jack, sharp white cheddar, cheddar, provolone and always I top it with some permessan.

It's not provolone. It's not mozzerella. It's not swiss. It's not blue. It's not Velveeta. It's not cheddar. You have me stumped on this one!!
