Swedish Meatballs

Ingredients

• 6 Tablespoons Butter, Divided
• 2 whole Onions, Minced
• 4 slices Rye Bread
• 3-½ cups Beef Broth, Divided
• 1 cup Sour Cream, Divided
• 2 whole Egg Yolks
• ½ teaspoons Allspice
• ¼ teaspoons Nutmeg
• ½ teaspoons Salt
• ½ teaspoons Pepper
• 1 pound 90% Ground Beef
• 1 pound Ground Pork
• ½ cups Flour
• 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce

Preparation Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onions until soft and transfer to a large bowl. Add bread, 1/4 cup broth, 1/4 cup sour cream, egg yolks, and spices. Mix, then add both meats and mix again. Form into 60 1-1/4 inch meatballs.

2. Bake meatballs on a wire rack set in a baking sheet until done, about 30 to 45 minutes. (You can brown them in a nonstick pan first if you want, but that is a bit of a pain.)

3. Melt remaining butter in a skillet and whisk in the flour. Brown this mixture, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes. Add in the remaining beef broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat a bit and simmer about 10 minutes until thickened.

4. Transfer 1/2 cup of sauce to a small bowl. Add remaining sour cream and the soy sauce to the small bowl, then stir into the skillet with the sauce. Add in cooked meatballs and let warm through.

Serve.
