Matzo Ball Soup 🍲- The Perfect Traditional Passover Meal!@Cooknbake🤗
A Warm Mazo Ball Soup For Passover!
An easy, uncomplicated version for a Traditional Meal :)
Success!!! I have made my first Matzo Ball soup for the first time and Loved it!!! :)
What are Matzo balls?
They are pretty much cultural dumplings. Since during the days of Passover Jewish people avoid any food with leavens, breadcrumbs are replaced with matzo crumbs.
It’s pretty much a simple seasoned dough mixture made of: cracker (matzo) meal crumbs, eggs and fat.
They’re steamed in a pot with seasoned water and then placed in a chicken / vegetable soup where they soak up all the delicious flavors as they cook.
There are so many variations of Matzo Ball soup but I found this one to be simple and very satisfying :)
HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

Autumn has arrived in Cape Town. I think I'm subconsciously seeking warmth. Got to give this a try! Thanks for sharing!
