Hi, I'm a chef from Sweden and I've worked in no less than four restaurants that served meatballs, including the one I currently work at. I thought I'd just straighten some things out just in case you're interested in learning about scandinavian (swedish) cuisine. A common misconception of Swedish cuisine is that we use dill in everything. We do not. It's typically used with fish, see "Salmon gravadlax" or "Skagenröra" that are two great examples of traditional scandinavian dishes with dill to get an idea of how we use dill in them. I've seen some chefs use dill with braised meats but its not very common. However it's fucking lovely with slowcooked lambshank or brisket for instance. I've never ever seen anyone put dill in meatballs, though.. You should also try to serve your meatballs with some pickled cucumber, as it's traditionally done in Sweden. The sharp tangy flavor really cuts nicely through the rich sauce, potatoes and meat and goes brilliantly with the sweetness of the lingonberry. :)
Oh, and the rasberries made me cringe. Why did you do that?
Swedes do put dill in other meat dishes, such as "Dillkött" which is an old Swedish traditional dish
Max Bogren-Lindahl right!? Wtf happened there!?
Jag har då flera gånger fått Köttbullar serverade med dill så tror det kan variera från region till region. Har även fått pannbiff med dill. 🙂
When I first visited Sweden 23 years ago, I was served french fries with dill at a cafe in Ängelholm. That cemented the idea of Sweden=Dill for me...
Not to mention, we would fry it in butter not oil.
Coming from a Swedish person: what is wrong with the recipe? Not much, given that there are variations of the traditional Swedish meatballs, it comes rather close to accuracy.
Normally we'd use milk and not cream for soaking the breadcrumbs, in some variations you'd use cold boiled potatoes instead of breadcrumbs (good for those with gluten intolerance).
An egg (or just egg yolk) usually put in too.
Dill in the sauce isn't common but it's acceptable.
RASPBERRIES DO NOT GO ON THE PLATE!!
Sometimes you'd have pickled cucumber on the side, quite common. Especially a quick pickled cucumber (using pressure) with parsley, which is where the herbs normally would come in.
Your comment should be top on the list, cause this is a correct assessment of what went wrong and how to fix it! Also not too uncommon to have fine grated carrot in the meatballs, nor is it too uncommon with more milk/cream and a bit of soy sauce in the sauce :)
Awesome assessment. I thought the raspberry was weird but being American I wasnt sure if it was traditional or not.
@ you can use veal, normally I'd use beef though some use pork.
@@iluvdissheet lingonberries is the traditional thing to have with Swedish meatballs.
@@thevermilionwitch thanks! I learn something new from this channel every video! So would cranberry be a substitute? Raspberries in my opinion are sweet which is why I thought that would make the flavor profile odd but cranberries are more tart....just curious
Raspberries with the meatballs? What? Also, that´s not nearly enough lingonsylt in the final serving.
cheddarrainbow verkligen inte. Åtminstone fem skedar för fan!
amy19902b 😂😂ja man måste ju ha mycket lingonsylt.
As a swede, I gotta say this looked pretty good! Not sure what you were doing with the raspberries at the end though, those shouldn't have been there, not if you wanted to do it properly swedish, that is. Also Mike, Lappland is Sweden, it's a province ;)
I'm pretty sure he was referring to Finland's Lappland though.
fictionalkajsa Sorted always adds their own Sorted twist to things lmao so it's never gonna be exactly pin point accurate just saying ~
@@inthepresent8278 yeah, but that twist shouldn't be such delicious things as raspberries to köttbullar with brown sace (usually it's cream sause from what my childhood has taught me) and mashed potatoes. Also, why is it dill in this? We usually only use dill for fish in sweden
Lapland is a province in Sweden, province in Finland and kind of a general name for the northern parts of north Europe. Just wanted to correct a fellow Nordic😌
@@babyshinx lappland in norway too my friend ;)
Difference between ground pork and ground beef: you can mix pork as much as you want as it actually gets better. Beef will get tough if you overmix and using fingertips is good. Therefore, you mix the pork with everything first, then gently add the ground beef so it stays tender.
If this isn't gonna be full week with nonstop jokes about Barry's name, I will be very disappointed. Or should that be "berry" disappointed? And no, I'm not sorry for that pun.
Mike, we're counting on you.
Soppe23 Jesus that pun was an emberrysment
ugh that pun was unberryable
All this berriment needs to stop now. It's all berry unberrycoming.
I want to berry this comment cuz of all the puns. But then again, this chain of comments is sweet.
Soooo... a lot of Swede's will have opinions on this. 😂 But personally, no dill in the sauce. Lingonberries in the sauce is ok, not dill. Never had dill in the sauce wherever I've eaten meatballs. And raspberries? What?! No no no. 😂
Other than that I think you did a great job with a Swedish classic. 😄
Sarah Adolfsson weeelllll if you know Sorted long enough, you'd know that Sorted always adds their own Sorted twist to things lmao so it's never gonna be exactly pin point accurate just saying ~
KarYeng :3 ive seen you commenting that a few times now, and yes, they do put their own twist to it but putting raspberries with it it just taking it too far 😂😂
Also, both onions and meatballs should be fried in butter, not oil!
KarYeng :3 yea I know, but why do all non-Swede's put dill in or with meatballs? They do not go together at all...
Having made this myself, the Dill adds a lot to it. Try it some time!
that intro was amazing, Mike ability to catch food out of the air is amazing
mike being so polite and raising his hand. oh mike youre truly a treasure to behold.
Jamie’s smirk when he’s secretly trying to catch a Benuendo is priceless.
Bennuendo of the day: "always tong your balls.." :D
I am from Sweden, so I am here to judge.
Sverige bror
Sverige!!!
Vi alla från Sverige är här för att döma😂
Jadå
Och i vanlig ordningar har svennar ingenting att komma med...
Varför har de gräddfil i såsen? Vad är grejen med dillen? Vem sjuder sina köttbullar i såsen? Vad FAN gör hallonen på tallriken?!
How many likes do i need for Ben to wear a pink sombrero?
seems fair! And then make him wear it for a whole recipe without adressing it at all.
Likes? I'd pay money to see that!
SORTEDfood Great, where can I donate?
Mulky Ghedi ok I get ur point but wearing a hat to represent a culture isn't appropriation, appropriation is claiming something as your own race's
Malte Wesemann I
As a swede I approve of those meatballs, but I'm not sure about the process... plus, we dont put the lingon berrys in the brown sauce and we dont have rasperrys in the dish
Lingonberry in the brown sauce is pretty common, but technically its called "lingonsås" if you add lingoberry to brown sauce. The recipe is pretty much spot on except for the raspberries.
Allt utom hallonen var rätt standard. FInns många sätt att svänga ihop köttbullar och mos!
hallonet654 jag har varit i Karlskrona till kiruna aldrig fått se eller testa någon lingonsås
They nailed a lot of things but the raspberries at the end is just disturbing.
Swanny_ Boy Sorted always adds their own Sorted twist to things lmao so it's never gonna be exactly pin point accurate just saying ~
Can I just say, I've really enjoyed these weekly themes. Some weeks are better than others, but I like the content Sorted Food is producing right now. Keep up the good work =P
Swedish meatballs aren't usually served with dill, but everything else you nailed, good job Ben
49divan except the raspberries
49divan ska ju vara gräddsås
49divan och inga hallon!
49divan Sorted always adds their own Sorted twist to things lmao so it's never gonna be exactly pin point accurate just saying ~
It's the Sorted 'sprig of mint' touch 😂
Ben: *first adds dill to the sauce, then plates the dish with raspberries*
The entire Nordics: "dafuq...ok, i guess....wait, what.....nnnnoooooooo-"
You should really have a Scandinavian week! All the pastries, ryebread and leverpostej 😄
Mike What have you done Why didn't you specify which Lappland there's gonna be a whole debate now
Especially since it's a video about Sweden, Swedes always start a fuss because of it haha
my Swedish grandma used coffee for part of the beef broth in the gravy. Adds another layer of flavor to the dish.
Didn't realize till 7'45" that my mouth was salivating...true sign of a great dish.
"Like a bechamel, but stock instead of milk"
So, veloute?
Hahahahah Chef vs. Chef
@Piotr Kaczmarczyk yeah and if you want to get eeeeeven more technical, a velouté is made with a light roux, or roux blanc/blond not a dark roux/roux brun like they used in the video.
I keep seeing this thumbnail, and I STILL CAN'T GET OVER THE RASPBERRIES. WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!?
Guys, this recipe is amazing. I just made it and I'm literally right now sitting in front of my computer with a plate of delicious Swedish meatballs with mash and I am in love!! Thank you, this just made it in my personal food hall of fame!
you shuld do something with cloudberry
Still rocking this recipe! The whole family loves it
I found the same lingonberry jam at a store in Canada; sounds like a good excuse to try this recipe.
I just had some Swedish meatballs from IKEA yesterday now I'm craving more, thanks Sorted!!!!!!
Thanks so much for the great recipe, guys! I made it for my mom's birthday, and it was a huge hit! I got so many compliments and there were no leftovers.
As a swede, I have to say that´s the most authentic swedish meatballs i have seen on youtube. Not 100% like I would do it, but close enough.
The sauce was extra authentic. That´s what most people seem to get wrong.
The only things I would do differently is:
1. Less allspice. That seemed like WAY too much. It can easily overpower everything else, but extra points that you actually used allspice. It is indeed important for the authentic meatball flavour.
2. I would not put dill in the sauce. Maybe in the mash, but not in the sauce. It is a very swedish herb though, so I can´t really complain.
3. I would add a little cognac (just a few splashes) to the meat mixture before rolling the meatballs. It enhances the flavour tenfold. Trust me, it´s amazing. This is not typical though, just the way I do it.
Overall, amazing meatballs! Many points to you.
Oh, yeah, one more thing. NO RASPBERRIES PLEASE! Lingon all the way, and nothing else!
ei96byod cognac and dill mash sounds great! Noted for next time I'm making them! Thanks!
Yeah. Dill and potatoes are really good friends. My mother would always put the thick woody stalks from her dill in the pot when boiling potatoes (preferably new potatoes, or at least a waxy potato), with plenty of salt. Mouth watering memory there.
I like seeing your take on iconic dishes. Keep it coming!
Lappland is in Sweden, and yes, meatballs with lingonberrys are "just from Sweden". Even though my grandmother in Finland also eats her meatballs with lingonberrys. She lived half her life in Sweden, thats why. ;)
Lappland is in both Sweden and Finland, innit?
That leveled up Mashed Potatoes recipe is awesome, I've tried it and thought it was a winner.
Haha! Fell on the finish line. Raspberrys Ben? Where did that come from?
I make a turkey meatball/meatloaf that tastes like Thanksgiving. I finely chop mushrooms and sauté them, use ground turkey, cheap Parmesan cheese( handful)
Grated onion, some breadcrumbs to firm up the turkey and lots of sage and poultry seasoning. Instead of red sauce I make a stroganoff style gravy and serve over noodles.
The link to the recipe is broken, has it been saved somewhere else?
Barry's face at 5:54 so shocked by Ben completely ignoring him!!
I am from Sweden, and I can say that you DON'T HAVE RASBERRIES WITH THIS! Only lingon berries.
Theo Byström let people explore them! Dont kill cooking vibes
I am so here for this week in general and this recipe in particular
"always tongue the balls"... every episode they turn up the innuendos a level ;)
Swede APPROVED!! Gonna try putting dill and parsley into my sauce in the future.
Just wanted to add in that in Sweden we don't cook the meatballs in the sauce, we pour it over the meatballs when they're on the plate with the potatoes and the jam so everything get sauce:))
I´m swedish, and I got to say that those meatballs looks delicious :)
I absolutely LOVE lingonberry jam. I eat it with absolutely EVERYTHING. Got some cheese sauce? Lingonberry jam. Some beefroulads? Lingonberry jam. Some baked Salmon? Lingonberry jam.
Lingonberry jam is the best.
Guys! First of all, dill and raspberries does not go with meatballs. Dill is most often used with summer potatoes or fish (herring/sill and salmon) and the raspberries are for dessert, preferably with cream and milk if you have enough for a bowl each.
Now, back to the meatballs. No other spices apart from salt and pepper should go into the meatballs (local and family recipes might say otherwise, but the old Swedish cookbooks are quite basic. Moreover the mashed potatoes should be made with butter and whole milk after being mashed, then seasoned with salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. Remember! This is an everyday dish here in Sweden and is therefore very simple with basic flavours.
By the way, It's a VERY Swedish dish. In Denmark the meatballs are generally made with raw onions and are about 3 times the size of the Swedish ones... and we eat them with pickled beets or ketchup in Denmark.
If you are wondering where I get my information from, it's straight from the source: one Swedish grandmother and one Danish grandmother.
You guys made a Swedish meatball video aaaaages ago...I'm talking years. I used it in my university years and I still go back to it, but I'm excited to try this new and exciting version!
Just for anyone that don't know, the blue and yellow company is IKEA, they sell flat pack furniture and there best food is swidish meatballs with mash and gravy with lingonberry sauce 😍
Major props to the best meatball recipe by Sorted yet. Sweet job (i mean tangy job as in tangy berries) boys!
You guy's original Swedish meatballs recipe was actually the first one I ever tried to make.
First swedish smörgåstårta and now köttbullar Love you guys
Wait a minute Partridgeberry Jam in Gravy? Not sure exactly how i feel about that one, but it might be worth a try. (Partridgeberry is what we call lingonberry in Newfoundland)
Binging from the beginning as i’ve only found the channel in the last couple months and this one just surprised the heck outta me.
I think the meatballs and mashed potatoes are in the ballpark, looks very yummy, and there is one recipe per chef here in Sweden, meaning everybody is sort of in the ballpark. Fry in butter and only cream in the sauce. Simple and round. Dill, don't know about that one ...
Tip from the coach: the lingonberries are much better if they're directly translated "raw stirred" or "råröda" meaning the lingonberries are mixed with just white caster sugar and cooked into a jam consistency. It's a preservation method but lingonberries themselves are kind of indestructible in that regard and a natural source of preservatives. Just asking for lingonberry jam will get you "lingonsylt" which is cheaper and diluted with applesauce. It's nice too, more of a generic sweet berry sauce, but not the real deal! Raw stirred lingonberries hit you in the face like an elk kick in a fabulous raw way! :D
And man drop the raspberries, if you want it to look like Swedish meat balls hahaha. Never heard of that combination. ;D
For soft meatballs - you can use white bread (best stale bread) + milk
I'm Swedish and you uploaded this on my birthday!
4:38 Kan någon rätta till D'et`? Det hänger snett för helvete!
its always amazing to see someome mess up a so simple dish!
this will be a berry good week of great recipes
The literal translation of the swedish word for allspice is "spice pepper" (kryddpeppar)...however, you can't say "it's not a spice, it's a berry", because there's no such thing as a "spice"... spice is not a type of plant, or a specific type of anything. It's just a word we use for ingredients that are added in (relatively) small quatities to add flavor to stuff.
Any alterations I'd have to make if I make it using chicken, given how less fatty it is? Or do I just need to mind the temperature and times? :)
Also, never had lingum berries before? How's it taste and what can I use as substitute (no such berries here)?
Usually when I make meatballs, even like these ones, I steam them in the stock that is going to be used for the sauce. So I just add the stock after they've been in the pan for a bit. That way they can't really get dry even if they're lean. Lingon berries are kinda tart, I would say cranberries might be similar? They might have lingon berry jam at an ikea if there's any near you.
Swede here. Lingon berries are quite unique, id say cranberry is the closest you'll get. You want thar acidity mixed with sweetness.
サパリーヤスシャント Barberries are also tart if you have access to middle eastern produce.
First of this is a great swedish meatballs recepie for anyone who want to try making swedish meatballs at home and never done so before. Nonetheless, I got to ask is there a reason why you use dill over parsley as I believe dill rarely are used with swedish meatballs if at all. Also, I would like to say that the raspberry was very interesting add on might even try it myself next time.
where do url get the background music...😅😅...it's nice...awsome recipe..
you guys missed out on the "pressgurka" wich is also abit key to the meatballs. and there is no dill involved in the dish traditionaly
charles carbring Sorted always adds their own Sorted twist to things lmao so it's never gonna be exactly pin point accurate just saying ~
KarYeng :3 nice not right here. But why
I literally threw something when I realized they were making something with the word "balls" in it because I knew what would happen. But this time, I can see that Ben deliberately avoided a bennuendo (except for with the tongs) *applauds*
My polish nan always put dill on boiled potatoes or in mash and its sooo good
I understand that this is a take on a traditional dish but raspberries with this seems odd and also I don't know if people have dill with their meatballs, as far as I know, we usually add dill to fish dishes here in Sweden.
Vem fan har hallon på köttbullar och gör en brunsås istället
At 7:23 I was worried that Ben was whipping out a sprig of mint lol
Holy crap I literally just woke up and I could go for about 5 portions of this right now.
If you want to maximize the flavor of the meat balls make sure to brown them on ALL sides not just 2. I see you went for the poaching approach, heh, but it's much better that way because it creates a crispy crust all over. When we make meat balls aka. "frikadeller" in Denmark our family likes adding dry white wine to the mixture "fars" in danish. Danish meatballs are generally a bit bigger though.
IKEAs köttbullar is the best thing! Im so happy you made this
You know you've been watching sortedfood for a while when you know exactly what they're going to say about allspice the moment they start to talk about it. 👏🏼👌🏼
meme bean still amazes us and confuses Barry
I have never tried Lingonberry jam will have to give it a try. Now if All Spice is a fruit what is Season All then as a question?
I love this recipe so much!! One of my favourite ones :) If anyone ever wanted to try it, I can only recommend it, it's the best
We also do the meatballs the day before. Since bread crumbs need time to exapand and incorporate
Always love watching none swedes make Swedish recipes 😄 But... I agree with my fellow swedes. Lingonberry jam in the brown sauce? Raspberries on top? Dill? What? I mean, it's creative I guess ☺
I love lingonberry jam and the Ikea meatballs. This was an interesting mix but I think I'd leave out the raspberries. I'd also leave out the onions, but that's just me. :)
Those look delicious! My mom's family is Swedish, and my great grandfather apparently made the best meatballs, but he took his secret ingredient to his grave, much to my mom's chagrin because she remembers them being so good! My grandfather said the best meatballs he had in Sweden had part reindeer sausage, which I can imagine just added another incredible dimension to this wonderful dish! And finally, just a fun note, my mom would use sage in her gravy, which is another herb option, perhaps if you're not a huge dill fan.
Im late but I am totally gonna make this recipe. And I'm Swedish! Not gonna have lingon berry jam though... Much better with "raw stired" sugered lingon berrys
Always learning! I had no Ikea that allspice was a berry...
You should have Swedish week, I think. One thing that's really good about Swedish food is that you'll get a good, satisfying meal for a very low price. Try making kroppkakor! (translation: bodycookies (it's not really body-cookies (more like swedish dumplings)))
I was playing Tetris tonight and every time I saw "level up" on the screen, did I think about my score or about where I was going to drop the next piece? No. I thought of mashed potatoes. Thanks guys.
replacement options for the double cream? my mum has no gallbladder and can't digest heavy fat dairy properly. I'm in Australia so keep ingredient access in mind
I don't know the terminology as well as Ben but... isn't that "meat sauce" gravy?
CiderDivider it’s more creamier than gravy but its also to not confuse the american viewers
We literally call it "Brown meat sauce" in Norway and Sweden.
In Finland it's called just "brown sauce"
same in denmark and the faroe islands.
I i would say its gräddsås in swedish, it translates to creamsauce
Just made this for dinner! It was so delicious!💜💜💜💜
SORTEDfood, stop making me so god damn hungry with delicious foods! XD
I miss the set-up of this FridgeCam season with these themes! If we could bring the themes back in some way I'd love it
I made it today. It was UNBELIEVABLE!!!
This looks incredible - never had the flat pack balls and now I don't need to! Also I'm totally going to use that brown sauce idea for making an extra silky sunday roast gravy.
BARRY!!! You will get a brownie point this week!! You berry believe it!
I would've skipped the rue and gone straight in with just double cream in the sauce, with the balls still in the pan. Then added a meat stock cube and reduced the sauce to thick and creamy. No dill in the sauce, and no lingon berry jam, but rather a drizzle of honey would be awesome. Then I would've boiled some new potatoes in water with salt and dill, and then served it all up with some lingon berry jam and garden parsley on top.
But nice take on the recipe! Would love to try it, just to compare :)
was really hoping for a Scandinavian week!
jamie absolutely set that innuendo up for ben
I've been struggling to get a Swedish meatball somewhere close to as good as the ones I eat at the annual Swedish fair I go to, will have to give this a whirl!
as a Dane, I was a bit surprised about the Dill comment, its all over here and thought it was a common used spiced, but now that I thing about it, not very often you hear it being used in cooking shows outside Scandinavia. Anyone not tasted it? (also great in dips for potato chips/crisp)
Watched this recently, craved meatballs, went to IKEA for lunch. They should give you commission ;)
I live in Mexico, what would be a good substitute for lingonberry?
Mabye you could try making something with cloudberries? They are commonly used in Norwegian desserts like cloudberry cream with waffle cookies ☺️
Don't need notifications cause I was already binge watching yous 😂😂
YASSSS!!!! FINALLY!!! SWEDISH MEATBALLS!!!
Jamie's face waiting for Ben to finish the sentence, "smaller than the average ball", but thankfully, he said, "smaller than the average Italian meatball"....
We eat lots of pork in Canada, but you rarely see ground pork in the grocery stores.
