A matzah ball is a traditional Jewish dumpling made from matzah meal, which is ground unleavened bread. It is typically mixed with eggs, water, and fat, such as oil or chicken fat, to create a dough. Matzah balls are commonly served in chicken soup during Jewish holidays, especially Passover, when leavened bread is prohibited. The texture of matzah balls can vary, with some preferring them light and fluffy, while others enjoy a denser consistency. They are often seasoned with herbs and spices to enhance their flavor. Matzah balls are a beloved comfort food in Jewish cuisine, enjoyed by many families around the world.
