CHOCOLATE MATZO RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Rub a little bit of olive oil over the stew meat. Place stock bones and stew meat into the Cooking Vessel.
• Once the oven has preheated, place the Cooking Vessel into the oven. Roast in the oven for about 45 minutes. Turn the bones and meat pieces half-way through cooking, until nicely browned.
• When the bones and meat are nicely browned, remove theCooking Vessel from the oven and place it into the Cooking Base.
• Add carrots, onions celery tops, garlic, parsley, bay leaves and peppercorns into the Cooking Vessel.
• Fill with cold water, 2 inches over the top of the bones (about 8-9 cups of water).
• Close the lid. Select-SLOW COOK and set the time to 12 hours. Press START.
• From time to time check in on the stock and use a large metal spoon to scoop away the fat and any scum that rises to the surface.
• Do not stir the stock while cooking. Stirring will mix the fats in with the stock, clouding up the stock.
• Once the cooking cycle is complete, open the lid.
• Strain the beef stock through strainer.
• Serve immediately or let cool to room temperature then chill in the refrigerator. If you plan to freeze the stock, however, remove and discard the fat, pour the stock into a jar or plastic container.

Steps:

• Beat the eggs, oil, and seasonings in a mixing bowl. Fold in the matzo meal and mix until fully incorporated. Store the mixture, covered, in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours, or overnight.
• Boil 12 cups of water in a 4 to 5-quart saucepan. With greased hands, roll the batter into about 12 balls, a little smaller than ping-pong ball size, and drop into the boiling water. After about 5 minutes the matzo balls will begin to rise to the top of the water, and you can stir them gently. Boil until doubled in size, about 15 minutes total.
• Serve in chicken soup or use as a dumpling for other soups. Cooked matzo balls may be stored in the refrigerator, covered in water, up to 3 days.
