While there isn't any religious significance to matzo balls, these types of dumplings are common in eastern European cooking and have become a ritual dish for the Passover holiday. Classic matzo ball soup can be made with your own homemade chicken soup or ready-made store-bought broth. There are several organic brands now available in supermarkets.

Ingredients

Serves:

Directions

Make matzo balls: Stir together all ingredients until well blended and chill, covered at least 1 hour.

Bring an 8-quart pot of salted water to a simmer. With wet hands, roll matzo mixture into 8 balls and simmer, covered, until cooked through, about 35 minutes (matzo balls will expand).

Meanwhile, heat broth (or soup) until simmering in a wide 5-qt pot and transfer matzo balls with a slotted spoon to soup. Gently simmer with celery leaves and dill for 5 to 10 minutes, then serve.

Cooks' note: Matzo balls can be made 2 days ahead and cooled uncovered in broth, then chilled, covered. Reheat over medium heat.
