1 tablespoon vodka
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup club soda
2 quarts chicken stock

Steps:

  • Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl until thick and light colored. Combine the matzo meal, vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon chicken stock, vodka, salt, pepper, basil, garlic powder, and club soda in a large bowl, and stir until well blended. Cover, and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours.
  • Pour the 2 quarts chicken stock into a large pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
