BEST SWEDISH MEATBALLS
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

GERMAN MEATBALLS WITH GINGERSNAP GRAVY
This recipe was one of my mother's favorites, and now my family enjoys it as well. The beauty of this recipe is that the meatballs need not be browned. The gingersnaps are what gives the gravy its rich taste. I have, at times, substituted fresh ground turkey for the beef, and it works just as well.

GINGERSNAP MEATBALLS
The unusual and very tasty sauce for these meatballs contains crushed gingersnaps. This is a scaled down adaptation of a recipe that I found in one of my Taste Of Home magazines. I think it is good served with macaroni and cheese and a crisp salad.

And you'll have plenty of gravy to spoon over your buttered egg noodles and potatoes.

SWEDISH MEATBALLS (KOTTBULLAR)
A genuine, and one of the most quoted Swedish recipes for meatballs. With a few variations, it is found in almost every Swedish cookbook. This variety of meatballs is always served hot, with cream sauce and mashed potatoes, in contrary to the small ones served cold that one finds on the Smorgasbord. At Christmas, some Swedes like a little "Christmas touch" and add a little allspice and ginger. If you're really ambitious, you'll buy whole meat and grind it yourself. It makes a great difference!
