For someone raised Gentile, I have always had an inexplicable love of matzo. It probably has something to do with never having been forced to eat the stuff for days on end, but whatever: I’m into it. You know what else I’m into?

This matzo ball soup.
Although boxed matzoh ball mix is often vegan, it usually calls for the addition of non-vegan ingredients, and the one time I tried to make vegan matzoh balls with a boxed mix was a sad, soggy mess. So I kept the spices from the boxed mix in mind and created my own recipe from scratch instead  — and I think they’re hands-down the best matzoh balls I’ve eaten.
