I made a second batch of Finnish/Swedish meatballs a few days ago. I made them a bit smaller than the first batch. We ended up with just under seventy meatballs. Of course, we didn't eat them all in one sitting.
This time we simmered them a smokey broth that came from blanching a piece of smoked pork mixed with the leftover simmering liquid from the first batch. That was mostly chicken stock, if I remember.
Then Ken made a darker gravy that we served along side. We also made up a batch of "dirty rice" which is rice cooked with stock instead of water. It was all very tasty.

I believe the correct term for Finnish/Swedish meatballs would be Fennoscandinavian meatballs.
