Matzoh Ball Soup
Matzoh Ball Soup
AKA Jewish penicillin, this is a staple in many homes and is always a crowd pleaser.
Matzoh is the traditional flat bread eaten over Passover when Jews are forbidden to eat leavened breads. Matzoh is meant to be a reminder of the exodus from Egypt as it is said that there was no time to let dough rise before it was cooked, so Jews fled into the desert with flat breads. While the cracker itself is fairly bland, and some people will argue it's delicious, there's no denying that once you mash it up, add some eggs and oil, and stick it in broth, the matzoh ball is absolutely delicious.
Make it with chicken or veggie broth. Add veggies or don't. Chicken and noodles are also optional! And then there's the actual balls. Some prefer a light and fluffy texture, while others prefer their matzoh balls denser and heartier. Every family has their own recipe, and every Jew will tell you their Grandmother's is the best.
Matzoh ball soup is served at every holiday, and many times when you visit your relatives. And there is nothing a Jewish person craves more when they're feeling sick than a delicious bowl of matzoh ball soup.

Photos of yarn are carefully corrected for color accuracy, but please keep in mind that different screens can display colors differently. Due to the nature of small batch, hand-dyed yarns, individual skeins may also vary slightly.
For best care, please hand wash all yarns in cool water with a mild detergent or wool wash and air dry. Yarns are carefully dyed to fully set color and rinsed before shipping, but some color bleeding is still normal with the first wash.
Please note that orders shipped outside of the United States may incur additional duties or taxes upon delivery. These charges are the responsibility of the customer.
