Categories     Soup/Stew     Passover     Saffron     Spinach     Spring     Kosher     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Saffron chicken broth
6 pounds chicken wings
16 cups water
1 1/2 pounds onions, quartered
6 bay leaves
1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons saffron threads
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
Spinach matzo balls
4 large eggs
1 1/4 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup unsalted matzo meal
1 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry

Steps:

  • For saffron chicken broth:
  • Bring all ingredients to boil in very large pot. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and simmer 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Strain broth into another pot. Spoon 1/4 cup fat from top of broth and place in medium bowl; add 1/4 cup broth. Cool fat mixture and reserve for matzo balls. Remove enough meat from chicken wings to measure 1 generous cup. Finely mince chicken; reserve for matzo balls. Chill remaining broth until ready to use. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.)
  • For matzo balls:
  • Whisk eggs, salt, and pepper into chicken fat mixture. Mix in matzo meal, then spinach and reserved minced chicken. Cover and chill until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
  • Bring large pot of generously salted water to boil. Using wet hands and about 2 tablespoons for each, shape matzo mixture into 16 balls; drop into boiling water. Reduce heat to low, cover pot, and simmer until tender, about 45 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer matzo balls to 13x9x2-inch dish. (Can be made 1 day ahead; chill.)
  • Skim any fat from top of broth; bring to simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Add cooked matzo balls; simmer until heated through, about 10 minutes. Ladle broth and 2 matzo balls into each of 8 bowls and serve.

BEST MATZAH BALLS

These can be tricky to get the right consistency. After years of experimenting with the basic recipe, I found these to come out soft but not falling apart. If you like firm/hard-middle matzah balls, either reduce the seltzer or add 1/4 cup matzah meal.

Time 1h15m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 eggs
6 tablespoons olive oil
⅓ cup club soda

4 quarts water
