I have become a foodie in recent years, trying out, adjusting and refining recipes along the way. It's fun to take something good and make it great!

My latest mastery was of a recipe that only needed two tweaks surprisingly. It originates from the D&D cookbook, Heroes' Feast: Delzoun Tide-me-over Meatballs and Sauce.

The meatballs are half pork sausage, half hamburger, with a structural paste of dark rye bread that's been soaked in heavy whipping cream and an egg. The sauce is a butter/flour roux with brown sugar, soy sauce, lemon juice and black pepper. And the whole thing is best served alongside a batch of egg noodles, just like swedish meatballs!

The end result is an intensely flavorful medley, high in fat and carbs, which gives you the energy to keep going through the day, or ensures you won't need ANY after-dinner snacks. I am thoroughly in love with them.
