Most People Make Matzo Ball Soup Wrong! Try My Jewish Grandmother's Trick for Fluffy Matzo Balls

My matzo balls sank like stones the first time I made them on my own, and my mother said I'd been watching the wrong thing all along. I walk through what's really in a matzo ball, matzo meal, beaten eggs, water and fat, and why some recipes float while others sink. I show the change my grandmother made with schmaltz instead of oil, why a long cold rest and gentle hands matter, and how I test if one's done without ever cutting it open. By the end you'll know why the fat, not the ratio, is the whole trick.
