Best Matzah Balls Recipe

  • 4 eggs
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/3 cup club soda
  • 2 tablespoons club soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups matzo meal, or more as needed
  • 4 quarts water
  1. Whisk eggs and olive oil in a bowl until combined; stir both amounts of club soda and salt into egg mixture. Mix matzo meal into wet ingredients to form a workable dough; if mixture is too wet, stir in 1/4 cup more matzo meal. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Wet your hands and form matzo ball dough into walnut-size balls. Gently place matzo balls into boiling water. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer matzo balls until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
