FLUFFY MATZAH BALLS



Fluffy Matzah Balls image

If you like light, airy matzah balls, you'll like this recipe. It's my son David's favorite, especially when his grandmother makes the matzah balls.

Categories     Passover     Spring     Kosher

Yield Yield: about 12 large, soft matzah balls

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large eggs
2 tablespoons chicken fat or vegetable oil
1/4 cup seltzer, club soda, or chicken broth
1 cup matzah meal
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
N/A freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the eggs well with a fork. Add the chicken fat or oil, soda water or chicken broth, matzah meal, and salt and pepper and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for several hours.
  • 2. Dip your hands in cold water and make about 12 balls slightly smaller than Ping-Pong balls.
  • 3. Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add salt and place the matzah balls in the water. Cover and simmer about 30 minutes until soft.
  • Tip: I often make chicken soup and matzah balls ahead. After cooking the matzah balls I just place them in the warm soup, which I then freeze. The liquid keeps them fluffy. I defrost the soup, reheat, and serve. If you like them more al dente, use large eggs and cook a shorter time.

BEST MATZAH BALLS

These can be tricky to get the right consistency. After years of experimenting with the basic recipe, I found these to come out soft but not falling apart. If you like firm/hard-middle matzah balls, either reduce the seltzer or add 1/4 cup matzah meal.

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 eggs
6 tablespoons olive oil
⅓ cup club soda
2 tablespoons club soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups matzo meal, or more as needed
4 quarts water

Steps:

  • Whisk eggs and olive oil in a bowl until combined; stir both amounts of club soda and salt into egg mixture. Mix matzo meal into wet ingredients to form a workable dough; if mixture is too wet, stir in 1/4 cup more matzo meal. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Wet your hands and form matzo ball dough into walnut-size balls. Gently place matzo balls into boiling water. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer matzo balls until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

FLUFFY MATZO BALLS



Fluffy Matzo Balls image

A fairly simple matzo ball recipe, but very good. If you don't have chicken fat, you can use a neutral oil, but it will really lack flavor.

Categories     European

Time 2h10m

Yield 12 matzo balls, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

7 large eggs or 6 jumbo eggs, separated
2 tablespoons chicken fat
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 cup matzo meal

Steps:

  • Beat the egg whites to soft peaks. Set aside.
  • Beat the egg yolks. Add chicken fat, salt and pepper, and beat well. Set aside.
  • Fold matzo meal into egg whites gently, preserving as much air as possible. Fold egg yolk mixture into batter, still preserving as much air as possible. Refrigerate batter 30-60 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a generous amount of salt (more than you would use for pasta). Using wet hands, divide batter into 12 portions and form each into a rough ball. Drop into pot.
  • When all 12 balls are in the pot, and the water has returned to the boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes, turning matzo balls over in the water once. Turn off heat and allow to remain in the hot water for 60 minutes more. Serve in hot soup (or refrigerate up to 2 days, reheating in the soup before serving).

  • The key to really fluffy, light and delicious matzah balls is not in the matzah – it’s in the eggs. 1. Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl with a hand beater for a few minutes. Turn off the mixer; add everything else to the beaten eggs and stir with a fork. The mixture will fall a bit; this is fine.
  • 2. Cover the mixture and refrigerate for an hour or overnight. To prepare the matzah balls: 1. Use a large, wide pot, as these matzah balls will grow a lot in size. 2. Fill the pot 3/4 full with water; boil the water with half a teaspoon of salt until it is bubbling.
  • 3. Wet your hands with a bit of water and shape small balls out of the batter. Drop them gently (the hot liquid can splash!) into the boiling water.
  • 4. Cook for 30–40 minutes. Remove the matzah balls from the pot with a slotted spoon. Place them on a flat plate and let them cool.
