Author's Notes

Makes 4-6 portions.

Optionally, skin the skum off the initial chicken broth to clear off the impurities, This will result in a clearer stock in the end.

We are removing the chicken meat early in the cooking process to avoid overcooking the meat. Feel free to leave the chicken in the pot the whole time though, just remove the whole chicken to make space for the matzo balls when they go in.
