Directions
Danish Meatballs Frikadeller, The Danes and the Swedes were in numerous wars over hundreds of years; one reason could have been ‘the meatballs’. Most people will think of Sweden and perhaps IKEA when they think of meatballs; however it is also a traditional dish in Denmark and it is a dish that varies from family to family, often being passed down through generations. My recipe goes back at least 100 years, perhaps more; but I have traced it back to my great-grandmother and can remember making the meatballs with my grandmother as a little girl. The difference between the Danish and Swedish meatballs is often that ground pork is added to Danish meatballs making them fluffier and – being Danish – I think more tasty ;, My grandmother was from Herring, Denmark and she used milk instead of water, saltines crushed in her youth and bread crumbs in the 90’s, and the ratio of Pork was 1 part to every 2 parts Beef. It’s all about taste..how your family likes it!, The ingredients seem right but we just had company over from Denmark and I can assure you that the ratios are off, especially the bee/pork. They use more pork than beef.
