About Matzo ball
Matzo balls are traditional Jewish dumplings made primarily from matzo meal, eggs, water, and fat, such as oil or schmaltz (chicken fat). Originating in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine, they are commonly enjoyed in matzo ball soup, especially during Passover. Matzo balls are typically light and fluffy or dense, depending on preparation style. Nutritionally, they are a source of carbohydrates and protein, thanks to the matzo meal and eggs. While they are generally low in fat, the use of schmaltz can increase their calorie and fat content. They contain minimal fiber and vitamins but can be part of a balanced meal when paired with a veggie-rich soup. Matzo balls are gluten-free when made with certified gluten-free matzo meal, making them suitable for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities. However, their nutritional value varies depending on the recipe and portion size.
