In our delicious Matzo Ball Soup, light and fluffy Matzo balls float in a rich and savory chicken broth loaded with carrots, celery, and chunks of chicken!

To begin with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook loaded matzo ball soup using 9 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Loaded Matzo Ball Soup:
- Take 1 Package Matzo Ball Mix,

Beyond the matzo ball mixture, the key to a good matzo ball soup is the stock. Though we have many great stock recipes on the Woks of Life, like my mom's homemade chicken stock, I like to make stock from a roasted chicken carcass for this soup. The keys to this amazing chicken matzo ball soup are slow-cooking it and using boxed matzo ball mix. Some people swear by seltzer, but I find it's not necessary—the mix makes perfect, fluffy matzo balls every time due to its baking powder.
Instructions to make Loaded Matzo Ball Soup:
- Prepare the Matzo Ball Mix as per packet instructions, then leave in the refrigerator as you prepare the rest.
- In a soup pan, sauté onion and garlic (if using) for 5 - 8 minutes, until translucent and lightly brown.
- Add carrots, celery and cabbage and cook for a further 5-8 minutes, until veggies are softening slightly.
- Add enough chicken or veggie stock to the pot (normally 1 - 2 L).
- Bring soup to a boil, then add rolled matzo ball mix (golf ball size).
- Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes, until matzo balls are cooked through and still bouncy/fluffy.
- Enjoy with a nice buttered bread on the side (challah or rye ideal!).
Add chicken fat (schmaltz) for extra-authentic flavor. The matzo balls will taste as if they came straight from Grandma's kitchen. I'll eat any matzoh ball soup especially when I'm ill. If I'm ill I reach for the Manischewitz tin and if I'm well my secret to perfect matzoh balls is on the back of the Manischewitz matzoh ball mix - the 'secret' of many cooks!! I skip the grebenes and use either pareve margarine or home-made schmaltz (rendered chicken fat).
