Asian Boil Chicken Eggs Jewish Kosher Simmer Soup

Matzo Ball Soup

I use an entire chicken in this matzo ball soup recipe. You’ll pull out the breast early on and use the white meat to garnish the finished bowls. Everything else stays and simmers for hours, enriching the stock with concentrated flavour and lip-smacking body. Remember to try our Jewish Chicken Stock recipe to make the best stock will every make. The chicken from this stock is perfect for Matzo Ball Soup. The Matzo represent the bread the Jew ate when leaving Egypt

Tip:

Make the chicken stock a day or so in advance and keep in the fridge or freezer if earlier.
