Matzo Ball Soup is a traditional dish rooted in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine, often enjoyed during holidays like Passover. The soup typically consists of flavorful chicken broth, vegetables like carrots and celery, and matzo balls—dumplings made from matzo meal, eggs, oil, and seasonings. Known for its comforting warmth, this dish is relatively low in calories and fat, especially when prepared with a lean broth and minimal added oil. Packed with nutrients from the broth and vegetables, it can provide vitamins A and C and protein if chicken is included. However, the matzo balls may contain refined carbohydrates and added fat, making moderation advisable for those monitoring caloric intake or sodium. A hearty yet light meal, Matzo Ball Soup is often praised for its soothing qualities and its ability to nourish both the body and spirit.
