Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large eggs, separated
1/4 cup chicken fat (reserved from broth, if available) or pareve kosher-for-Passover margarine, melted, cooled
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2/3 cup unsalted matzo meal

Steps:

  • Stir egg yolks and next 4 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Beat egg whites in another medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into yolk mixture alternately with matzo meal in 3 additions each. Cover and chill until cold and firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
  • Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Drop cold matzo mixture by generous tablespoonfuls onto sheet of plastic. Using moistened hands, shape into balls (each about 1 1/4 inches in diameter). Drop matzo balls into boiling water. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until cooked through, turning matzo balls over after 15 minutes, about 35 minutes total. Using slotted spoon, transfer matzo balls to dish, arranging in single layer. (Can be made ahead. Let stand up to 2 hours or cover and refrigerate up to 1 day. Simmer in salted water until heated through, about 10 minutes, and drain before serving.)

These matzo balls were a little too eggy for my taste. I think I'll use less eggs next time.

I've never been a fan of matzo balls, but these were actually really good. I think it's because they're so light and fluffy.

These matzo balls were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my matzo balls turned out dense and heavy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These matzo balls were easy to make and turned out great! I used chicken broth instead of water, and they were still delicious.

I'm not a big fan of matzo balls, but these were actually really good. They were light and airy, and they didn't have that weird eggy taste that I usually associate with matzo balls.

I've tried many matzo ball recipes, but this one is by far the best. The matzo balls were so delicious and flavorful, and they held their shape perfectly in the soup.
