"Official" Jewish Mother Chicken Soup

Yield: 1 Servings
Categories:
1Kosher chicken cut into large hunks (I have never tried this with a non-kosher chicken, so I have no idea how soup from one would taste. However, it would taste somewhat different.)
Several (3 to 6) large sharp white onions, cut or sliced.
1Carrots, chopped (optional) (up to 2)
Enough water to cover the chicken
Salt and pepper to taste
MATZOH BALLS
2tbMelted chicken fat or oil, approx (I think it's better if you use the fat from the soup.)
2lgEggs, slightly beaten
1tsSalt, about
2tbSoup, about (not hot enough to cook the beaten eggs in the mixture--use the soup after it's been cooled in the fridge) or water (It tastes better if you use the soup)
1/2cMatzoh meal, about
