I probably should have taken a picture of it all plated up. Tonight was swedish meatballs. I've made it once before, about a year ago. I served it with mashed potatoes and marionberry sauce. I simply didnt feel like doing a veggie, shame on me I know.
I ran into the same problem that I did last time, I had a hard time getting them to stay nice n' round when they were browned. Some kinda just fell apart. I remembered this problem and so I added more bread crumbs thinking that would help them hold their shape. No, just no. But as I said once before, whats home cookin' without a bit of imperfection!
My sourdough seems to be coming along. I have "hooch" which is the clear liquid that rises to the top. It's apparently alcohol. If I opened the lid, it would smell like strong beer. Depending on how the starter itself is doing, I can either mix it back in or drain it out. It's looking pretty wet so I think in the morning I will pour the liquid out. I need to read the recipe again, but I think that tomorrow I start "feeding" the starter. This is where the real nurturing comes into play. Oh boy, I hope this goes right this time!
