Recipe: Help for Marie

Hi Marie,
Here's my Grandmother's recipe. I hope it helps. Please post back and let me know how they turned out.

Broth
Put some chicken in a pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Skim the foam off the top. Add large pieces of celery stalks and onion so that they can be dicarded at the end of cooking (they are for the flavor). Cut carrots into sticks and add to soup(which can remain if you'd like). Add a good amount of salt (Grandma prefered the Kosher salt).

Matzoh balls
2 Tbs. chicken fat
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup matzoh meal
1 cup boiling water or 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup chicken stock. Add pepper to taste.

Pour boiling water over the matzoh meal and stir until the water is absorbed. Add the chicken fat, then egg and the salt and pepper. Mix well. When cool put in the fridge. After about an hour or longer, take dough out and roll inot walnut sized balls. Drop into boiling broth and cook uncovered for around 30 minutes.

Marie, are you rendering your own chicken fat? I know that the chicken fat that you buy at the store is no comparison to when you make it yourself. If you need good instructions on how to do that as well or need any other authentic Jewish recipes, just ask and I'll be more than happy to share.
Take Care!
