Matzo Balls (Kneidalah)

I have to admit- Matzo Balls are one of my top favorite foods in the world. Every year I'm waiting for Passover to arrive so I can have the excuse to eat them! I just recently discovered that here in America people eat matzo balls all year long, a habit that I'll definitely adopt from now on. Matzo balls are traditionally served in chicken soup and are a staple food on the Jewish holiday of Passover. I got this phenomenal recipe from my aunt Yonat, who is known for her legendary matzo balls. It's extremely simple and I encourage all of you, Jewish or not, to give it a try! Once you have the chicken soup done, it takes less than an hour from mixing to serving. And it's so unbelievably delicious!
