I've had plenty of matzoh balls in my life, but these are the best ones by far! Do not resort to a boxed mix, these are easy and far superior! Matzoh balls are traditionally made for the Jewish holiday of Passover and float (or sink) in a bowl of chicken soup. However, there is nothing more comforting when you don't feel well than a piping hot bowl of chicken soup with these gems.

Steps:
- Place diced parsnip and carrot in a single layer in a microwave-safe bowl and add a small amount of water. Cover with a paper towel and microwave on high power until tender enough to mash, 5 to 10 minutes. Mash.
- Mix shortening with eggs, matzoh meal, 1/2 cup water, salt, and pepper and mashed carrot and parsnip. Add parsley. Mix together.
- Refrigerate covered for 20 minutes.
- Scoop out balls of mixture to desired size and drop into boiling water. Cook in water until light and fluffy looking, about 5 minutes. Matzoh balls are now ready to add to your favorite soup!
