| Directions | Lightly beat the eggs, then stir in the oil or butter. Combine the matzo and 1 t salt in the other bowl.
Mix the eggs into the matzo meal, then add stock. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Bring a pot of water plus remaining 1 t salt to a boil. Wet hands with cold water, take a blob of matzo dough, and form into a ball (marble- to golf-ball-sized). Repeat with remaining dough. Drop matzo balls into boiling water, lower heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 30-35 minutes. |
