Kittencal'S Light-As-A-Feather Matzo Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 large eggs
    1/4 cup oil
    1 cup matzo meal
    1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder (2 teaspoons won't hurt)
    1 teaspooon table salt (I use seasoned salt) or 1 kosher salt (I use seasoned salt)
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
Preparation
    In a medium-size bowl, whisk eggs and oil together with a small whisk or fork until well blended.
    In a medium bowl combine the matzo meal, baking powder salt, garlic powder and black pepper.
    Add in the egg/oil mixture.
    Mix lightly until combined (do not over mix).
    Refrigerate for 1 hour.
    Using lightly greased hands shape the mixture into 1-inch round balls.
    Drop the balls into a large pot of simmering chicken broth (can use boiling water mixed with 2 tablespoons or more of chicken bouillon powder instead of the broth).
    Cover and reduce heat to low.
    Simmer for 30 minutes or until soft and tender.
    *NOTE* the balls will expand to almost double in size when cooking.
