Marvelous Matzoh Balls Food

MATZO BALLS

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, oil, and seasonings in a mixing bowl. Fold in the matzo meal and mix until fully incorporated. Store the mixture, covered, in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours, or overnight.
• Boil 12 cups of water in a 4 to 5-quart saucepan. With greased hands, roll the batter into about 12 balls, a little smaller than ping-pong ball size, and drop into the boiling water. After about 5 minutes the matzo balls will begin to rise to the top of the water, and you can stir them gently. Boil until doubled in size, about 15 minutes total.
• Serve in chicken soup or use as a dumpling for other soups. Cooked matzo balls may be stored in the refrigerator, covered in water, up to 3 days.

• Refrigerate covered for 20 minutes.
• Scoop out balls of mixture to desired size and drop into boiling water. Cook in water until light and fluffy looking, about 5 minutes. Matzoh balls are now ready to add to your favorite soup!

KOSHER PERFECT MATZO BALLS

Steps:

• Follow these instructions carefully.
• Measure and mix dry ingredients into a bowl.
• Individually break the eggs into a clear glass, discarding any with blood spots, and then pour into a second bowl.
• Add oil or schmaltz (and water or broth for firm matzo balls) to the eggs and stir gently with a fork until the yolks are broken and the oil just mixed.
• Pour egg mixture into the dry mixture and gently mix with the fork.
• DO NOT OVER MIX.
• Treat it like a muffin mixture; if you over mix they will be tough.
• Place in the fridge for 1 hour.
• Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil on the stove.
• After matzo ball mix has set, gently remove teaspoon fulls of the batter and roll into 1-2" balls and drop into the water.
• When all the balls are in the water leave it to boil until all the balls float to the top, then lower the temperature to a rolling simmer for 40 minutes and your matzo balls will be ready.
• DO NOT STIR AT ANY TIME.
• The matzo balls may be removed from the water with a slotted spoon and served in soup, with a stew, as a side dish with gravy or placed on a cookie sheet and frozen covered for a later use.
