Step 1
• Prepare the broth: Place the whole chicken, celery, carrots, onions, tomatoes, parsley, dill, coriander seeds, peppercorns, cloves, and 2 teaspoons of salt in a large saucepan. Cover with cold water by 2.5 cm. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, skimming off any foam that forms on the surface, for 3 hours.

Add the onion, garlic, lemon zest, ginger, dill, parsley, matzo, 1/4 cup of chicken broth, and 1 3/4 teaspoons of salt. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours. Then, using damp hands, form the dough into small balls.
