Notes about this recipe

    I used 2 chickens instead of 3; I can't imagine the 3rd chicken would have provided noticeably more flavor. Lost track of time and didn't remove the chicken breast until 1.5 hrs of cooking, so it was slightly dry, but worked fine in the soup. Next time I would simmer the stock partly covered, as so much liquid evaporated that I just had enough for the soup. I also think 3 hrs total simmering time would be enough. I was very confused as to the matzo ball cooking instructions - was I supposed to cook them in the stock, remove them, then cook the diced carrots and celery? That's what I did, but the matzo balls soaked up an enormous amount of stock. I think I'd poach them in water next time, although then they wouldn't taste as good. The soup had great chicken flavor that you just can't get from a can.
