Just barely light enough to float. Definitely not as light and airy as the macaroons that followed.
Floaters or sinkers? I like mine a little on the dense side … the sort of which my great grandfather purportedly said, “They should throw them at the Arabs.”
@eatthispodcast Spoken like a true foodie. 😉 Definitely not a consomme, but that lovely, yet understated, chicken stock represented about 10 hours of care. The result was well worth the effort! The matzo may get the top billing, but the broth was the true star. The chicken last week wasn’t shabby either…

Hungry again now….
practice makes perfect.
The soup looks perfectly clear.
And maybe a little seltzer
😊 😊 😊
@shannsmak I wondered why my ears were burning…
Funny I literally just spoke of u 10 minutes ago
It is always nice to see you here. You look good my friend. Xx
Heard the secret on npr yesterday is using seltzer water
A good first try. Keep practicing – as long as you don’t kill someone (or break their foot when you drop one), you’re improving.
Looks good to me! Well done.
The most perfect matzoh ball is nothing without a supportive soup. Wonderful job.

Thanks Sabs Reseach, but I’m no pisher. I know about that trick already… 😉
It involves a whole chicken.
I wanted to know if it actually worked… Kinda wanted input from the experienced
We love Glendale!!
