Author	Topic: What is meatball?

	Well, I'm not Swedish, but american myself. However, frozen meals featuring swedish meatballs and pasta are quite tasty in an onionish-gravy kinda way. However, that kind of brown gravy is only one type of swedish meatball I've experienced. Another time, the brown gravy had a lot of sweetnessiness in it.

	Could you describe brown sauce for me, for example? Brown gravy is a standard ingredient in all swedish cooking. If I knew how to cook better than I do I'd tell you how to make one, however, for any dish requiring gravy I have to yell for my wife. She does put a lot of cream into it, that I know. I can tell by the size of my waistline /Z -----signature----- mental ray Tips blog - http://www.mentalraytips.com ZapTroNic Visuals - http://www.ZapTroNic.com Oldschool Homepage - http://www.Master-Zap.com FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER - http://twitter.com/masterzap

	Meatball/Metaball!! ROFL Brown sauce also goes well on beans on toast and sausage/bacon sandwiches... it also has been known to spice up a fry up. Don't you American's have brown sauce? It's kind of like a non-sweet barbecue sauce, but not very... that's the closest that I can get to it. www.brownsauce.net -----signature----- What IS meaball?

	Swedish "Brunsaas" (Brown gravy), as served with meatballs and potatoes (and, if it's done correctly, with lingon-berries and pickeled quecumber (spelling?)) is made by frying the meatballs, in butter, in a pan. Add some hacked-up onion in (about one whole...) Add cream and spices. Black pepper and salt, mostly. If you have burnt something in the pan so that there are some charred pieces, filter them out or simply lift them out with a spoon. Not very lightweight food, but then again - traditional swedish cooking seldom is. (We were a people of forrest-workers and farmers until 50 years ago...) Now - THAT's off topic... -----signature----- Original score for: "Beyond The Gate","Mirrored Image" (72h film contest) and "Inside Report" Composing for: Journey to Knighthood - release in Dec 04 The Long Road Back - in '05

	The entire off-topicness aside.... I really like meatballs 'swedish style' IKEA do some very nice ones, which have the 'brown gravy' and good old lingonberry sauce as well. Top cuisine, and an essential purchase every time we shop in Brent Park IKEA. If I'm feeling particularly greedy (that'll be every day then) we have a starter of cured salmon and dill. And then there is herring ('Sill' isn't it Zap?). I'm the only one that seems to like that in our family though.

	Indeed, Sill it is! (And it's totally impossible to have a family party in Sweden, such as "midsommar" or christmas, without it!) Now, if I only could find some Swedish film-nerds aswell... I guess I can't tempt you guys to get over here, even if you like meatballs -----signature----- Original score for: "Beyond The Gate","Mirrored Image" (72h film contest) and "Inside Report" Composing for: Journey to Knighthood - release in Dec 04 The Long Road Back - in '05

	Cucumber. And yes, America has brown gravy. We usually put it on mashed potatoes, roast beef....etc. -----signature----- ----TF.N Filmmaking Workshop Originator---- Someday, people will realize that condemning certain behavior is not hate, and condoning all, is not love.

	But brown sauce (at least the stuff that HP make in the UK) is entirely different to gravy. It's gelatenous, and about the same consistancy as ketchup. It even comes in a similar glass/plastic squeezy bottle -----signature----- What IS meaball? The more you run over a dead cat, the flatter it gets
