Pour boiling water over matzoh meal, stir until water is absorbed.
Add fat, then eggs and seasonings

2 Tablespoons fat *

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup matzoh meal Mix well and cover. Refrigerate until ready to use. Chill at least 1 hour before use.

1 cup boiling water

Dash of pepper To make balls, use soup spoon to scoop dough, roll into balls the size of large walnut, or as desired. If hands get sticky, moisten with cold water.

1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon chopped parsely

Soup:

Swanson's chicken broth Drop balls into boiling chicken soup. Cook 20 minutes, boiling gently, mostly covered.
