Directions:
Combine ground beef and pork (I used veal too),

eggs, putting whites into a large bowl and yolks into
a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate the yolks. Beat
whites until they form soft peaks; fold into meat
mixture. Shape into 1-inch balls and place in an
electric slow cooker. (I browned these slightly in a
skillet). Combine beef broth, water, quartered onion,
vinegar, sugar, pickling spices and remaining 1/2 tsp

to a heated deep platter and keep warm. (I cooked the
meatballs for about one hour in the skillet). Turn
heat control to high (290 to 300 degrees). Combine 1
Tbsp all-purpose flour with 2 Tbsp cold water in a
cup; stir into liquid in cooker until smooth; cover.
