I always have to double the sauce on everything. Great leftovers too. One of those dishes that gets better after sitting. Thanks for sharing, and making me crave another meal. 😂
Thank you so much!! My grandmother made these all the time. I loved them!! She died and never wrote it down. It was in her head. I watched her make these many times as a kid, and this comes the closest to what I remember of hers. Only difference I remember, is she finished it all off in Low oven and maybe added three Bay leaves then removed before serving. She made big batches in a blue specked roasting pan that would serve 18 of us family members on a Friday night. OMG, can’t wait to try this one! Thanks again!
Great channel, even for us seasoned gravy makers for picking up extra ideas. My Swedish meatballs are almost identical, and sauce very similar. I prefer to add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer for 10 minutes.
I prefer Mace instead of Nutmeg. It is just the outer skin and has a much sweeter delicate flavor. Thanks for the recipe. Great presentation. Just how I've done it for years.
It is a forgotten spice. I love it too! My favorite two is Cardamon and Tarragon, and when I make dishes everyone is shocked-the what??? Most amazing flower on the planet hands down is the vanilla bean orchid! Vanilla, mace, and CASHEWS! Glory be and worship this miracle from god🙏🏻❤️
I love your channel, all your recipes are straight forward and may I Add delicious. I keep saving your recipes but now I think I better just get your cookbook. Thanks for this one, I will be making it very soon.
This sounds like tradidional swedish m.b sauce, (exept for the garlic). Garlic was concidered as weed, and were not used in swedish tradional cooking. Its very delicious so I will try with garlic next time😊. Kind regards Jonas Gothenburg Sweden.
I am 69 from the south and my sauces and gravies are on point! Scuse me while I speak loudly and toot my horn-IMMA FOODIE and damn good cook, 40 plus yrs in rest/hospitality ind, and I learned from southern grammas! I never knew what the Swedish sauce was though, so I can’t WAIT to make this! Anyone can make these but few learn because while really super EASY it takes PATIENCE! No one has that anymore, but you can sure eat up MY delicious creation under the guise of learning lol! I’ve had numerous younger ones ask but just want to eat. Can’t wait to see what else you teach! Thank you, I’ll let you know how my meatballs turn out-‘gramma-head to Sweden-coz these ain’t it- OR gramma we want meatballs!!!😝🙏🏻❤️
I'd say all of your videos are a pleasure to peruse. This swedish meatball vid was true to form. I could almost smell the fond at the bottom of the pan you were cooking in. Yum. Thanks man!
Thank you for spreading our culture As a Swede i will first soak the bread crumbs in milk and let rest for 10min (1/3 milk 2/3 bread crumbs) It makes the meatballs more moist. And you only use beef dont fry in all the way through, It will make it dry. Personally I use 1/3 pork and 2/3 beef mix for added juiciness. As for the sauce add a spoon of lingonberry jam for a sweet touch. Lingonberry should anyway be served with Swedish meetballs so you should have it on hand.
My half Swede wife and I enjoy meatball often, and as for the recipe there is the 1000 grandmother conundrum which is, 1000 grandmothers have recipes for the same item and they all differ in some minor ways. We have learned to cook to our own taste and try to learn from all those grandmothers. It is never wrong, they were all great cooks.
You can put lingonberry jam in the sauce, but I'd say red or black currant jam (röd eller svart vinbärsgelé) is more common when making a really tasty brunsås or gräddsås.
@@HerrBrutal-bl2fk I agree and in Sweden I would do that but abroad it’s difficult to find the current jam. Lingonberry is stocked at IKEA around the world 😜
Looks great, as indeed all your recipes. Traditionally, Swedish meatballs are seasoned with white pepper, pinch of sugar, salt and possibly allspice (regional preferences). Pan fry in butter. The sauce will usually have a little black currant jelly or lingon berry jam added for a touch of sweetness, but not generally mustard powder although nice flavour. Served with potatoes or mash and lingon berry jam or red currant jelly as a substitute. The ground beef mixture can also be used to make patties (pannbiff), which are served with fried onions and the gravy. In addition to lingon berry ham, pickled cucumber is commonly served. Fresh pickled cucumber is also really nice.
One of the recipes I have followed calls for Dijon mustard instead of mustard powder. It definitely gives it a really nice flavor, but I'm still trying to figure out how they make the sauce I ate in a restaurant in Stockholm. That was the best Swedish meatballs/gravy I have ever had in my life. The gravy I make comes close to what I had in Stockholm, but it's missing something.
If you happen to be a baker, i recommend making some rye bread and toasting it for breadcrumbs. You get the nice binding effect and it has a very authentic flavour. You could use sourdough bread or really any kind you like!
There’s an IKEA quite nearby and I always see bags of the Swedish meatballs for sale. I have not yet bought any. (Yes, I love the apple cake and a cup of coffee while there.) Anywho, this recipe is perfect timing for my next trip. And some lingonberry jam, of course! Be well.
Correct! Allspice, that is the old-fashioned spice for meatballs, together with salt, in the olden days. Also, breadcrumbs were often replaced with wheat flour.
This is no joke folks. There are few things on this planet that I could eat day after day after day! Asparagus, Swedish Meatballs, BBQ St. Louis ribs, and Angel Food cake scratch with strawberries or blueberries. I could die a happy camper!
What is an acceptable replacement for heavy cream in making the sauce, if any? I can never find heavy cream, but I always wanted to try to make this recipe from scratch.
This is an Americanized version of the dish. In Sweden garlic powder is never used in the meatballs. Parsley or other herbs are seldom used. Some cooks add Worcestershire sauce to the sauce, but that is a rare phenomena and so is adding mustard to the dish. A very common finishing touch is to add red or black currant jam to the sauce. I've never seen that step in foreign versions of the dish, but I highly recommend it.
That looked like a decent Swedish mtball sauce! Kudos! How does a wooden spatula leave a nasty taste?? I’ve never heard such a thing. I would never try to scrape a metal pan with wood tho LOL I use metal in all my castiron, if ur pan can’t take it, it’s not seasoned well yet. It’ll get there! I only use metal pans for boiling water or making soup (glorified water). Even my bakeware is stoneware. Gravy & sauce comes from cooking meat so it’ll be in my castiron lol
@@rtb1724 hehehe, don’t spoil my fun! My kids & i have a great game of coming up with the most ridiculous ways of pronouncing it 🤪. Yes, we do know the British way, but where’s the fun in that! 😉

New sub!! Love this! I love sauces and gravy!
Mmmm, I love Swedish meatballs. A hot pot of buttered egg noodles and I’m good to go! Ty…
Noodles with Swedish meatballs? Tf type of world did I wake up in. I get it if you sometimes use pasta, but noodles?

Johnny, I'm surprised you've never done a Mexican mole' sauce. Love your Swedish meatballs sauce. I've been following your earlier recipe for years.
Thank you for spreading our culture

Awesome job Johnny. The sloppy joe recipe was great.
Are you sure you're not Leon Russell's brother?
Thank you! Great channel. The sauce is scrumptious!

@@charleshamilton9274 Try this recipe, it is so much better than frozen Ikea meatballs.
Tip for all, grate the onion over the breadcrumbs, stir and let sit for 5 min… makes a difference
The sauce and gravy channel?? I’ve never hit subscribe so fast in my life.
This recipe looks delicious. I only wish you had the option to print out the recipe. 😊
Dude, your voice is like gravy.
@@danfoster-hy8mo it's pretty normal

Lots of wash-yer-sister sauce! Makes everything better
My mother always added some instant coffee for color
Can you do "Cherries Jubilee "?
Can I use 1/4 cup JFG mayo if I don't have an egg on hand? 👍⬆😉
That should work - as long as it's JFG 👌👍😊
What is an acceptable replacement for heavy cream in making the sauce, if any? I can never find heavy cream, but I always wanted to try to make this recipe from scratch.
Sour cream would work. Just be sure to temper it with a couple spoons of the hot sauce before adding to the pan, otherwise it might curdle.
You could just add some flour to the fat, then just use milk and stock.

Can you put in a whole onion 🧅 or more?

More garlic please!
Instant heart attack food
I don’t want Swedish meatballs and sauce, I want Mediterranean meatballs
Worcestershire “Wooster” “shire.” Woostershire
Brits simply say "Wooster" (without the "shire"), as in Wooster, OH, or Worcester, MA. Only Americans make a big deal of it.
