Serving Suggestions:
Ingredients:
2 lbs. lean ground beef
2 tbs. extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. crumbled red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp. paprika - hot or sweet
1 tsp. caraway seeds
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions:
1. Combine beef, oil, garlic, baking soda, thyme, red pepper, paprika, caraway seeds, and 2 tablespoon water in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and knead for 5 minutes, wetting your hands frequently to help keep mixture moist. Cover bowl and refrigerate for at least 5 hours.

2. With wet hands, roll meat, 1 tablespoon at a time, into small balls, then shape balls into sausages about 3 inches long and 1 inch thick. Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Cook sausages in batches, turning frequently until well browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve as an hors d'oeuvre or with potatoes as a main course.
