Matzah Ball Soup

Edit to add or update your photo! My grandma's secret recipe to make this chicken so rich is to boil the chicken forever! You can use any chicken pieces you prefer - I use four large chicken breasts. Dark meat adds more flavor but more calories as well.

Serves: 6-8
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time:
3 hours
Ashkenazi Meat Soup
Rosh Hashana

Ingredients

4 chicken breasts, with skin on
4-6 large carrots, chopped
3 celery stalks, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
8 cups water
salt and pepper, to taste

For the matzah balls:
3 large eggs, separated
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tbl. fresh parsley, chopped
2 tbl. chicken fat (schmaltz)
3/4 cup matzah meal
1/3 cup of water

Directions

  1. Put 4 cups of water on to boil. In the meantime chop vegetables and rinse and clean the chicken breasts.
  2. Add vegetables and chicken to the boiling water. Be sure to replace water as it boils off.
  3. After 2 hours (or longer -- boil as long as you can) take out the chicken, remove the bones and skin and discard, and cut into large chunks. Return the cut up chicken to the soup.
  4. 30 minutes before serving add the matzah balls.
  5. For the matzah balls - Whisk together yolks, salt, pepper, parsley, schmaltz and water.
  6. Whip egg whites until stiff and fold into yolk mixture.
  7. Gently add matzah meal.
  8. Refrigerate matzah ball mix for at least 3 hours.
  9. With oily or wet hands form matzah balls and drop in boiling soup.
  10. Drop matzah balls into boiling soup, lower flame to simmer and cover for 30 minutes.
