Whether you’re celebrating Passover or just love a good chicken soup, we’ve got the recipe for you. Classic matzo ball soup gets an herby twist from our Wild Green Goddess Seasoning, which is packed with herby goodness from basil, oregano, parsley, sage, and tarragon. In this recipe, we add a few spoonfuls to the matzo ball mixture and give the soup a final pinch of seasoning before serving. And while you can certainly make the whole soup from scratch, we provide a few tricks to cut down on time without skimping on flavor.

Our Wild Green Goddess Seasoning is, by far, the herbiest option in our lineup. In it, you’ll also taste roasted garlic, wildcrafted ramps and sumac, and a hint of green spicebush. Beyond adding to soup, it’s excellent on chicken and fish and is delicious in our Cool and Creamy Wild Green Goddess Dip. You can even blend it with some olive oil for a simple, delicious dipping oil for bread.

We hope you give this soup a try. If you do, let us know what you think by leaving a rating and comment below, or tag us on IG. Happy cooking!
