These lean meatballs stay plump and moist, baking at moderate heat until perfectly done. Meanwhile, a sweet-spicy glaze of gochujang (Korean red chile paste), honey, and rice vinegar melts together on the stovetop, and the cooked meatballs are tossed in this glaze to coat. Though the gochujang mixture has some spicy kick, the meatballs themselves are quite mild, so the flavors balance out. Set out as part of an appetizer spread with toothpicks or fondue forks for easy serving.
