YES IT IS A JEWISH MEAL AT PASSOVER Answer No, there is no religious significance to matzoh balls. At Passover, the command is no levening in your house.

Matzoh balls are wheat dumplings which are boiled in chicken broth until done. Matzoh balls are made of eggs, oil, and matzoh meal, refrigerated, then boiled. Other than they fullfill the command for no levening in the house, there is no religious significance.
