Skim the fat off of the top of the stock and reserve for the matzo balls. Remove the chicken and set aside to cool. Add to the stock the onions, carrots, celery, black pepper and boulion. simmer till the vegetables are tender. (approx twenty minutes) remove the bones and skin from the chicken and add the meat back to the pot and bring back to a simmer and add the fresh parsley.

While the soup is coming back to a simmer prepare the Matzo Ball Recipe.When the soup is simmering add the chilled Matzo Ball mixture to the top of the soup in 2T balls cover and simmer gently for 30 mins. The addition of the Matzo Balls turns this wonderfull soup into a filling meal.

When making any soup it is as easy to make two gallons as it is to make one. You can freeze most soups in small batches for later use or do as I do and drop a gallon off at an elderly nieghbors house or a family in need. You will become an instant hero.
