I have always had them made with färsk potatis rarely mash. You want the full kit and kaboodle. Have this dish around May when the new potatoes are available. Next level. Just boil them and peel them at the table with your knife. Swedish meatballs truly are a swedish experience.

Scandinavian food in general is as you describe it. Simple, filling, rich and warming. We didn't have alot to cook with, but we use everything we have! Which is why there is always gravy to use the sweat from meats or vegtables, soups to use all the scraps and alot of stews too! And i love it all! (I also love other food like mexican and italian ofc. but you guys were spot on with description!) Also, danish food is the best scandinavian food! Trust me, i am danish! Totally unbiased i swear!

Usually it's meat broth in the sauce. It can depend however, as people tend to put their own touch to it. Regarding the meatballs, I've heard Swedish top chefs say that it's supposed to be "minced" rather than mashed together. I never understood this and was happy to see the texture of these meatballs looking like the ones I make at home. Many also tend to put onion and garlic into the mix to put some life into the meatballs (or the hamburger-looking version, called "pannbiff"). I'd say it's hard to decide where the best meatballs are served, in three finer restaurants like this you can get three similar looking plates with a different taste to both meatballs and sauce.

About the sauce. The "base" is almost always the "juices" left from the pan after you cook the meatballs. Thats were all the flavours comes from. Its quite simple, mix the all the nice juices from the pan with cream, add some sort of bouillon, salt, black pepper and garlic pepper. I use beef bouillon cubes but you can use chicken aswell. Then you just get the cream to a light boil and keep it there for a couple of minutes while stirring. If needed, add some sort of a binder. You cant it thick, but not to thick. About the mashed potatoes, my father taught me that the secret to good mashed potatoes is nutmeg, sugar, lots of butter and cream instead of milk.
@robinolsson7003
@robinolsson7003 8 ай бұрын
Personally I prefer my mash kinda "dry". Not for every dish but for meatballs definitely. About 10-20g of butter per portion maybe? And maybe around 20ml of heavy cream. It holds up much better to the sauce, because otherwise it just turns to soup. Also not a fan of sugar in it, there's already enough sweetness in the jam and pickles. I haven't tried putting nutmeg in it but that sounds interesting. Nutmeg is definitely a traditional flavor. I just add salt and WHITE pepper. And for the love of God, use mealy potatoes. Using waxy potatoes for mash is an absolute crime.

The sauce is probably if traditional, made with the fond of the meatballs at the bottom of the pan it was fried in along with cream and salt and pepper to taste. I have never seen a cream sauce for swedish meatballs made with a stock personally. But my wife is swedish and my mother in law's meatball recipe. Just next level. Honestly the sauce if done correct is definitely the star of the show.

If you want to be real cultural and fancy you could get lingondricka, if you don’t want that but don’t want to offend the gatekeepers you can just get sparkling water. However, there is nothing wrong with having Pepsi or any other soda with this. I say as a Swede myself.

If i only could eat only one dish for the rest of my life, it would be meatballs. Also, supposedly there is an authentic Scandinavian restaurant in London that serves meatballs. Saw a video about it a while back. Never tried it myself so i can't really recommend it, but maybe worth a try if you don't wanna go over here for them if you got the cravings. Ps. The sauce is made in the same frying pan after you've fried your meatballs. Might be the meatball juices you tasted.

I would prefer milk or lingonberry “juice” to this dish. And meatball recipes are as many as there are Swedes. I for example like the meatier. But the best part or meatballs is when you are frying them, the small parts that falls off, those are the best parts. It’s like botturas best part of a lasagna.

Hey, a Swede here. I suggest you visit my hometown of Gothenburg, or Göteborg in Swedish. We got a lot of good food and bakeries here to sink your teeth in. We have a place famous for its fish market Fiskekyrkan, we have a lot of old pubs, and there are of course a lot of old streets with bakeries with plate-sized cinnamon buns. One of my favorite places I went to as a child was Saluhallen, a large marketplace filled with plenty of food products. You can buy barbequed turkey, chicken, sausages, ribs, and so on. Highly recommend it. To name just a few Fiskekrogen, Kometen, Sjömagasinet, and Café du Nord, the last one is one of the oldest restaurants, it started 1875 and has one of the oldest meatball recipes in Gothenburg, around 145 years old. Highly recommend you check it out to compare it to Pelikanens recipe.

Of course the dish is Swedish. The people who claim it's not Swedish are the people who will do anything to rob us of our cultural heritage and pride, saying that "this is not a thing, this isn't yours" because some Turk once put together a ball of minced meat 2,000 years ago. By the same logic you can't say Beef Bourguignon is French because some Neanderthal might've made a beef stew 300,000 years ago.

Meatballs should be small so you get the Maillard effect.

Been here before, they have good meatballs but homemade are significantly better in almost every respect. Especially as a full meal if you also made all the components at home. Large meatballs are only viable in a restaurant setting because they can make a ton of stock, but traditionally you are meant to make them small in order to get more surface area and create more browning for the roux and sauce. I will say though that their skagen is extremely good, and so is their fläsklägg. Also it's not break your bank expensive, an envelope with a drink or two is less than 100 euro.

Obviously a matter of preference but I've never been a fan of that style of meatballs. IMO should have majority beef with a bit more coarseness than that. Calf stock, black/white pepper, garlic, some ketchup and a splash of soy sauce. Everything else on the platter looked great. Edit: and definitely a bit smaller.

I most say that those meatballs do not look like the best in Sweden, I say that as a long eater of meatballs. Northen Sweden here. You should go to someones grandma and eat homemade meatballs with brown sauce and lingonberry and mashed potatoes its a classics in all homes. this is very similar to another Swedish gem "köttfärs limpa" meatloaf with brown sauce and potatoes and blackcurrant jelly..very nice. My grandma always did that when I came to visit, and it was so good tried doing it myself but never as good as grandmas, vila i frid farmor.

There are 11 million Swedes (in Sweden, in the world in total there are approximately 85 million who identify themselves as descendants of Swedes with strong cultural ties). This probably means that there are close to 100 million recipes for Swedish meatballs. This in turn means that there is hope for the world.

No no the best meatballs are in Haninge just outside city. Vegabaren its the name. Or as we call it "Drojven". Stockholms oldest burgerplace. Open pretty much 24/7. If it closed they open just for you. Been eating there for 30+ years.

Rule of thumb: If you need to cut the meatball, it's too large, real Swedish meatballs are small, bite size. If you don't want the ratio of crust that is the signature of Swedish meatballs, you order meatloaf.
