Add the bread crumb/cream mixture and mix well. | 10. With wet hands (to keep mixture from sticking) shape the mixture into meatballs the size of golfballs, placing them on a plate slightly moistened with water. | 11.

Transfer the meatballs to a plate and keep warm. | 15. Discard all but one tablespoon of fat from the skillet. | 16. Prepare the Sauce. | 17. Return the skillet to the heat. | 18. Whisk in the stock, 1/2 cup of cream, preserves and pickle juice, and bring to a simmer. | 19. Season to taste with salt and pepper. | 20. Add the meatballs to the sauce, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for about five minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and the meatballs are heated through. | 21.
