It's good with cheese, too. Anyway, to make it into balls, they first make the matzah (the cracker), then grind it up into a coarse meal. Then you mix that with eggs, oil, and water/broth/seltzer (any will do the trick), let it rest for about an hour, and then form it into balls. You can then drop the balls into boiling broth or salted water for about 3 minutes, which binds them together so that they don't get the main soup all mushy with fall-off meal, then transfer them to your main broth pot and cook for another 15 minutes or so to get them done.

Matzah balls come in two basic varieties: floaters and sinkers. Most people tend to prefer floaters, which are softer, fluffier, and tend to be slightly irregular in shape. I like sinkers, myself. They're dense and a bit more chewy, and tend to form into the exact shape that you make them into; you can get perfectly round sinkers. Floaters are lighter and fluffier. The only difference is whether you use olive oil (which will make a very dense matzah ball, a sinker) or walnut oil (which will make a fluffier ball, a floater). Also, if you use broth or water, you get a sinker, whereas if you use seltzer water, it's more likely to be a floater. I keep meaning to experiment with other oils, too.

That's sounds pretty good, I wanna try a matzah ball myself. :3
: D

It's delicious. If you can find matzah meal in the grocery store, you should definitely get some and try it out. They're stupid-easy to make. Check the kosher section, if your store has one.
