What is a matzah ball soup:
It is chicken soup with dumpling made of matzah meal (or in a gluten free version from potato starch). Historically it is a dish that was served during the holiday of Passover, however with time it became a traditional Ashkenazi (eastern European) Jewish dish that is often served during shabbat dinners. If you want to read more about matzah balls:
Everyone is invited regardless if you bring soup or not.
