Directions

  1. Place chicken in a large stockpot, and cover with 10 c. water. Add in celery, onions, and carrots. Bring to a boil; lower heat to a simmer, and cook for 2 hrs. When impurities rise to the surface of the broth, skim off with a ladle. In the last 15 min, add in the dill, tied in string.

  3. The next day, scrape the congealed fat off the top of the soup. Return soup to a medium stockpot, and reheat over medium-low heat. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  4. In the bowl of an electic mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the Large eggs on low speed. Turn off the mixer, and beat in canola oil, 1/4 c. water, matzo meal, parsley, and salt and pepper by hand. Cover mix with plastic wrap, and refrigeratetill it sets, about one hour.
  5. In a second large stockpot, bring water to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer. Dampen your hands, and shape matzo mix into balls the size of golf balls. Drop the balls into the water, cover, and cook for 30 min, making sure not to peek. The matzo balls will expand during cooking. Using a slotted spoon, transfer matzo balls to a bowl.
