Swedish Meatballs & Cream Sauce (Köttbullar Och Gräddsås) Recipe on Food52
"My husband grew up in Sweden, and this was the recipe his great-grandmother used to make Swedish meatballs when he visited her as a young boy. There are three major differences to this recipe compared to Americanized versions. Salt and pepper are the only spices since these spices were not common in recipes except for special occasions. This recipe also uses potato as one of the binding agents, which I have not found in other recipes. Lastly, it only uses ground beef, instead of a mix of ground meats...."
