I've been making chicken soup for over 30 years, this recipe makes quick work of making soup, putting whole vegetables etc. in then straining at the end and adding more veggies for serving. However, I know of no fresh carrots or celery that fully cooks in 5 minutes (hence only 4 stars. You will end up with raw carrots and celery. I strained etc. after a total of 3 hours-then added the fresh veggies including sauteed onions into the soup and cooked another hour. Perfect.

This is a wonderful chicken soup, my go-to recipe. It's time consuming, but worth every bit of effort. As far as the matzo balls... Internet 101: Type "Matzo Balls" without the quotation marks into the search space on the site. Hit enter. Guess who's recipe for Matzo Balls heads the list--Ina's. Shame on anyone who marked this recipe down for being unwilling to do a simple search. This is 5-Star chicken soup, all the way.

this was an easy and delicious recipe. i had 2 huge boned chicken breasts that i used instead, i also added matzo balls to the dish, tried Ina's recipe for the balls but didn't have any luck with the whipped egg whites so i just used the recipe off the can of matzo, this will be my new favorite because of how easy it was

When I saw the show Ina said she uses less matzoh, folds in egg whites, adds dill and parsley, but where is the recipe?
I loved that she suggested that after one hour of poaching you reserve the breast of the two chickens and return them to the pot. I used to make Chicken Enchiladas with white meat from soup I made, and the chicken was tasteless. Today I will follow her suggestion, and get my husband to the Rick Bayless Red Chile Chicken Enchiladas from his book, Mexican Everyday. Should work out great.

This is by far the best recipe for soup that I have tried. It reminds me of my grandma's soup. The taste is fantastic!! It is terribly easy & makes a bunch of stock! Everyone here & even my neighbors love it.

I was just thinking that I would like a good recipe for Matzo Ball Soup. I just turned on the TV and there was Ina Garten making Chicken Soup with Matzo Balls!!! I quickly printed out the recipe and now I am going to the grocery store to get the ingredients. Can't wait to try it. Sounds delicious.

I have been making chicken soup forever and one day a few years ago decided to try Ina's recipe after buying Barefoot Contessa Parties cookbook! I still use leeks in mine with the onions, but for me the addition of the garlic, parsnip and thyme among the other vegetables we both use made a huge difference...Also, I never measured my water, so this recipe makes a very good rich soup! Ina, we could use more Jewish recipes this good from you! You're the best!

Very easy to prep and make! This soup has a fresh and earthy taste...we couldn't get enough. My 7 year old daughter even loved it, pretty good considering she used to only eat "Chicken & Stars". The only thing I changed was to use more chicken meat and salt.
