Matzo Ball Soup

January 29th, 2013

soup final 1

When you’re not feeling your best, there are few foods more soothing than chicken soup (though Cool Ranch Doritos are a close second for me). In light of this year’s flu season, my husband decided to make homemade broth with matzoh balls. It’s a simple recipe that includes some non-traditional spices, to provide a slight kick. It takes a bit longer than heating a can of soup in the microwave, but this is the next best thing to having your favorite Jewish deli deliver.

    Aw. That’s so sweet of your husband to make it for you. Matzo Ball soup is a staple in my house when someone is sick. We also buy one small chicken and boil it in water with Jewish consomate, it’ll heal you right up. Feel better!!
