INSTRUCTIONS

In a medium stockpot, heat 2 tablespoons of schmaltz over medium  heat.
Add onion, celery, and chicken. Sear until golden brown, 2 to 3
minutes. Add carrots, parsnip, dill, salt and pepper. Cover
ingredients with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer
for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. During the first half hour, skim impurities off
the surface of the soup.  Remove the chicken, and reserve. Strain soup
through a fine chinois.  Add the carrots and nicer pieces of chicken
back into the broth.  Reserve 1/2 cup of soup to make the matzo balls.
Pour the rest of the  soup into a medium stockpot, cover, and keep on
low heat. While the  soup is cooking, make the matzo balls.  In a large
bowl, using a whisk, combine the eggs and remaining 4  tablespoons
chicken fat. Whisk in 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the reserved  broth to moisten.
Add matzo meal. Moisten with more chicken broth if  needed. Cover
mixture with plastic wrap. Chill until mixture sets,  about one hour.
In a large wide-mouthed stockpot, bring water to a boil; then lower
heat to a simmer. Dampen your hands and form matzo into walnut-sized
balls. Drop the balls into the water, and cook for 30 to 45 minutes.
The matzo balls will expand during cooking. With a slotted spoon,
remove matzo balls to a bowl. Ladle hot broth into soup bowls, and
place balls in each bowl.  Serves 8 to 10.  Source: "Martha Stewart
