Yield Makes 6 large matzo balls

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 large eggs, plus 1 egg white
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 ounces fresh baby spinach leaves
1 cup matzo ball mix (usually both bags out of a box).

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl whisk the eggs and the oil.
  • In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, process the spinach until puréed. Squeeze the water out of the spinach.
  • Add the spinach purée into the egg mixture. Whisk to incorporate.
  • Sprinkle in 1 cup (2 bags) of the matzo ball mix. Stir in with a fork, mixing as little as possible. Don't overwork it. Chill in freezer for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water or chicken stock to a boil.
  • Wet your hands in a bowl of cold water. Using your hand, and manipulating as little as possible, scoop out a ping-pong-ball size of the mixture. Form into a ball with your fingertips, using no real pressure. Bring the water down to a simmer. Drop the balls into the water. Cover the pot and simmer for 20 minutes.

These matzo balls were a bit bland. I think I'll add more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my matzo balls turned out really dense. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These matzo balls were a little too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I actually really enjoyed these matzo balls. The spinach flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the other ingredients.

Not bad, but not great. I've had better matzo balls.
