What's in the quart

Every quart serves two. Here's the ball-by-ball.

2

Matzo balls

Big ones. Matzo meal, eggs, schmaltz, seltzer, dill, salt and pepper. Simmered until puffed, tender and proud.

1 cup

Shredded chicken

Skinless, pulled from the same birds that made the broth. Nothing wasted, nothing weird.

½ cup

Carrots and onions

Simmered until tender. The supporting cast. The balls are the stars.

4 cups

Total, with broth

Homemade chicken broth fills the quart. No noodles in the standard pack. Noodles are a distraction.

How we make it

Slow broth. Big balls. Fast freeze.

  1. Broth, 3 to 4 hours. Whole chickens and wings, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, turnip, bay and peppercorns. Dill and parsley go in for the last 30 minutes. Strained and skimmed.
  2. Balls, chilled then simmered. Eggs, schmaltz, seltzer and dill into matzo meal. Chilled an hour, rolled with wet hands, simmered uncrowded until the centers hit 160°F.
  3. Packed and frozen. Two balls, a cup of chicken, half a cup of vegetables, broth to four cups. Cooled fast in shallow pans, sealed with headspace, frozen at 0°F.
