Ingredients

2 Tbsp. melted chicken fat

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

1/2 cup matzoh meal

1 tsp. Kosher salt

1 tsp. baking powder (except for Passover)

2 Tbsp. club soda

Directions

Blend the eggs and fat together in a small bowl.

Add the matzoh meal, salt, and baking powder and blend well.

Add the club soda to incorporate completely.

Cover and refrigerate the mixture at least one hour.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

Using wet hands (to avoid too much stickiness) form the mixture into balls. I like large matzoh balls and used about 2 Tbsp. each.

Carefully drop the balls into the boiling water and then cover the pot.

Turn down the heat to a slow boil and cook until the matzoh balls are soft and as the saying went... "pughy"

Remove the matzoh balls with a slotted spoon and when the soup's ready serve in the soup.

I make chicken soup several times a year and will definitely try this the next time I make it! The Katella Deli in Cerritos (I think it's Cerritos) makes a great Matzoh ball soup. Thanks!

Yey! I remembered to buy Matzoh Meal today...it's "unsalted". I'm half-way there! Now how do I get chicken fat....do I have to roast a chicken or do I ask the butcher or does it come packaged? Sorry to sound so ignorant!

CHICKEN FAT: If you live in the NY area they generally sell it in containers in the refrigerator case around other Kosher items. Here in Ca. I trim the fat when I prepare chicken and freeze it until I need it. I have also been known to ask butcher dept. people in grocery stores out here if they have any around. I hope that helps.
