Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ pound ground beef
½ pound ground pork
1 ½ cups Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
¾ cup milk, divided
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1 clove garlic, minced
1 ½ teaspoons salt

⅛ teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons salted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups low-sodium beef broth
1 dash Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
1 (16 ounce) package egg noodles
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
  • Combine ground beef, pork, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup milk, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, and allspice in a large bowl; mix until just combined. Use a rounded 1-tablespoon measure to form mixture into meatballs. Place meatballs on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.

Gradually whisk in the remaining milk and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sauce has thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.

  • Drain egg noodles and serve immediately topped with sauce, meatballs, and parsley.

BEST SWEDISH MEATBALLS



Best Swedish Meatballs image

Our family has been using this recipe for more than 40 years. The tender meatballs are made with a combination of beef, veal and pork, then spiced with nutmeg and ginger. If your family likes their meatballs a little milder, reduce the nutmeg to 1/2 teaspoon. Coffee adds nice color to the gravy, which is delicious over noodles.-Rev. Jim Thyren, West Pittston, Pennsylvania

Time 1h25m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 slices day-old white bread, crumbled
½ cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon butter
1 small onion, minced
⅔ pound ground beef
⅓ pound finely ground pork
1 egg
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon butter
¼ cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as needed
2 cups beef broth, or as needed
½ (8 ounce) container sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place the bread crumbs into a small bowl, and mix in the cream. Allow to stand until crumbs absorb the cream, about 10 minutes. While the bread is soaking, melt 1 teaspoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the onion until it turns light brown, about 10 minutes. Place onion into a mixing bowl; mix with the ground beef, ground pork, egg, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, allspice, and ginger. Lightly mix in the bread crumbs and cream.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Pinch off about 1 1/2 tablespoon of the meat mixture per meatball, and form into balls. Place the meatballs into the skillet, and cook just until the outsides are brown, about 5 minutes, turning the meatballs often. Insides of the meatballs will still be pink. Place browned meatballs into a baking dish, pour in chicken broth, and cover with foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the meatballs are tender, about 40 minutes. Remove meatballs to a serving dish.
  • To make brown gravy, pour pan drippings into a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk the flour into the pan drippings until smooth, and gradually whisk in enough beef broth to total about 2 1/2 cups of liquid. Bring the gravy to a simmer, whisking constantly until thick, about 5 minutes. Just before serving, whisk in the sour cream. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Serve the gravy with the meatballs.

Tips for Choosing and Cooking the Best Noodles for Swedish Meatballs:

  • Consider the Texture: Opt for noodles that hold their shape well when cooked and won't become mushy or overcooked. Look for pasta varieties like egg noodles, penne, or rigatoni.
  • Cook the Noodles Al Dente: Avoid overcooking the noodles as they will continue to cook in the sauce. Aim to cook them al dente, which means slightly firm to the bite, to ensure they retain their texture and flavor.
  • Use a Large Pot: When cooking the noodles, use a large pot to accommodate the pasta and prevent overcrowding. This allows the noodles to cook evenly and prevents clumping.
  • Season the Cooking Water: Add a pinch of salt to the cooking water to enhance the flavor of the noodles. You can also add a drizzle of olive oil to prevent them from sticking together.
  • Drain and Rinse: Once the noodles are cooked, drain them thoroughly in a colander. Rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking process and remove excess starch, preventing them from becoming gummy.

Conclusion:

Choosing the right noodles for Swedish meatballs is essential for creating a harmonious and satisfying dish. By considering factors like texture, flavor, and the ability to hold the sauce, you can select the best pasta that complements the meatballs and enhances the overall experience. Ultimately, the choice of noodles depends on your personal preferences and the specific recipe you're following. Experiment with different types of pasta to find the one that resonates with your taste buds and creates a delightful culinary journey.
