Matzo Ball Soup for Passover
Traditional matzo balls קניידלך (kneidlach) are comforting dumplings made from matzo meal, eggs, and fat.
Matzo מַצָּה (also spelled matzoh, matzah or matza) is unleavened bread that holds deep significance in Jewish culture during Passover פֶּסַח (Pesach). It is made simply from flour and water and is baked quickly to prevent any rising, resulting in a flat, crisp texture.
We eat matzo during Passover to commemorate the Exodus from Egypt, when our ancestors left in such haste that their bread didn’t have time to rise.
Manischewitz matzo ball mix is Kosher for Passover and my choice for the best tasting. It contains matzo meal, salt, monocalcium phosphate, baking soda, onion, black pepper, garlic, and celery seed.
Matzo meal is a ground form of matzo, used as a breadcrumb substitute or a flour alternative, especially during Passover.
Monocalcium phosphate is a leavening agent and food additive typically used in baked goods. It is a fast-acting acid that reacts with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide, which helps baked goods rise and become light and fluffy.
If you are looking for a recipe for the fluffiest, most delicious matzo balls in a beautiful clear tasty broth for Passover or anytime – you’ve come to the right place!
