From Mozz to Matzo Balls (DV1111H)

Season Eleven, Episode Eleven

From Mozz to Matzo Balls - Original Airdate 3/28/11

This trip, Guy Fieri is pulling up to some longtime favorites. In Williston Park, New York, the 1920's candy and ice cream place that's added mozzarella sticks and rigatoni to an old school fountain menu. In Sonoma, California, a spot in a historic downtown building doing a lamb burger with an African twist and scratch made borscht. And in Denver, Colorado, a 2nd-generation, Jewish deli serving up grandma's matzo ball recipe.

I can give you mine which is my late Grandma Lena's recipe with my additions:

In around 6 quarts of water
15 chicken thighs (skinless)
1-2 parsnip depending on size
1 turnip
5 carrots
4-5 celery stalks and all the flowers that come in the package
Bay Leaf
2 Large Onion
4-5 T Kosher Chicken Bullion (Carmel, Osem or Streits)
Salt and pepper to taste

After around 2 hours (although my mother says only 1- 1/12 hours) take the chicken out

Let simmer for 3-4 hours
