  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon cloves

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Brown finely chopped onion in bacon grease. Add to ground pork along with celery, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves.

  • Step 2: Shape into balls about 1-1/2 inches in diameter.

  • Step 3: Roll in seasoned flour (flour, salt, and pepper combined).

  • Step 4: Drop meatballs into boiling beef broth.

  • Step 5: Reduce temperature; simmer for 1 hour.

  • Step 6: Thicken remaining stock with browned flour; season to taste.

  • Step 7: NOTES FOR THE COOK:. You may make beef stock or use boullion cubes and water.

  • Step 8: Browned flour is something our Mothers and Grandmothers made. It is very simple to make by just stirring several tablespoons of flour back and forth in a dry medium hot skillet. This type of flour will not thicken as quickly as plain flour because the heat breaks down the starch cells. It takes 3 tablespoons of browned flour to do the work of 1-1/2 tablespoons of plain flour. 'Flour may be browned in a hot oven' is what recipe says; I don't know about that; I think it could burn pretty easy.

We hope you enjoy this recipe!
