    Here are so tips for the next time you do Swedish meatballs - from a Swede and a big fan.
    1) Mix the breadcrumbs and the milk and let them rest for a bit, then mix it with the rest of the ingredients
    2) Caramelise the unions and let them cool before adding them to the mix
    3) If you want to do a Christmas version you can add some allspice
    4) My grandmother (and I) like to add use some paprika powder

    In Sweden, the gravy is mostly made by glazing the pan with a little water after frying some meatballs. We fry them in batches.
    The liquid, with all the good flavors, is then filtered into a saucepan and flavored with cream etc.

    • @msr1116

It's the Zyliss Susi garlic press and comes with a little studded plastic pusher to dislodge the garlic skin that sticks to the bottom. It's made of aluminum so don't put it in the dishwasher or it will turn gray. Mine is considered vintage now and the new design has changed, but they make a quality product. No need to peel the garlic first.

      I have. They're good that way-- if the crowd doesn't inhale them. I do cheat. I bake mine on a covered cookie sheet in the oven and turn them a couple times until they're done. Delicious. Oh yeah. Make 2-4 times the recipe. A group of 20 we had here one year inhaled them in 35 minutes. Seriously.

    • @MrsLeguyader

    pro-tip:
    Before you roll the balls, grab a little pinch of meat and make that into a patty and cook it. It gives you a good "finished product" taste before you go and roll/cook all the other ones.
    Say, you forgot salt or garlic etc... you eat the little patty and you'll know how things will be. It's a good "sneak peek".

    • @BigHalfSteps
      @BigHalfSteps 2 роки тому

      If you have "leftovers", that means you already made balls.
      I got two problems with that tip.
      1) The exact grams of minced meat provided and other ingredients like breadcrumbs are for exact amount of balls. There shouldnt be any leftovers.
      2) If you use leftovers to test if it's seasoned enough, your balls that you made need to be destroyed, seasoned and then again made into balls. Cumbersome.
      Instead I would say "sacrifice" one meatball, but flatten it so it cooks much faster, and then taste if it is seasoned, before proceeding to shape the meat into balls. You could also divide that sacrificed meatball and give it to relatives/friends whom you cook with and have them tell you if it's nice or if something is missing - or atleast everyone got a little appetizer knowing what deliciousness awaits them.
