 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2       lg           Eggs
  1       lg           Egg white
    1/2   ts           Salt
    3/4   c            Matzo meal
  1       tb           Oil
  8       c            Homemade chicken broth
  2                    Parsnips, peeled & chopped
  1       lg           Carrot, peeled & chopped
  1                    Onion, chopped
  1       c            Broccoli florets
  1       c            Sliced mushrooms
  2       tb           Chopped fresh dill or
                       -parsley

 In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, egg white and
 salt. Whisk in matzo meal, oil and 3 T cold water.
 Cover and chill the mixture at least 1 hour or
 overnight.  In a large pot, bring chicken broth to a
 boil.  Add parsnips, carrots and onions, reduce the
 heat to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes. Gently roll
 the chilled matzo dough by level teaspoonfuls into
 balls, dropping them into the simmering broth as you
 work.  Cook the matzo balls, covered, for 15 minutes.
 Do not lift the lid; the broth must simmer rapidly
 to allow the matzo balls to expand properly.  Uncover
 the pot, add broccoli and mushrooms and simmer until
 the broccoli is just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Ladle
 into bowls, sprinkle with dill or parsley and serve.
