Funny you mention how matzoh's a good compliment to bitter greens and mutton, because that's part of how it's used on Passover. A part of the meal involves topping matzoh with bitter herbs, charoset _(it's an apple or pear chunky paste with raisins, nuts, cinnamon and a splash of wine)_ and a bit of lamb if you want. It also makes for a nice hearty breakfast with eggs. Break it up, soak it in water until it's soft but not mushy, beat some eggs, let the eggs soak into the matzoh, then add salt and fry them with butter on the stove.
@@mattbrody3565 My sister in law is Jewish and when she and my brother were still living with us, they made this for a few Passovers and it was really good. They live in Wisconsin now, but hopefully I can join them for Passover again sometime.
First off, thank you for taking on extra work so the more religious people can celebrate the holiday. I'm a first gen American from ukrainian Jews, and here are some recipes I remember as a kid: For soup - bullion, or chicken broth soup, is just chicken, onion, carrot, herbs, salt, and water. Normally we eat it with mullen or other thin wheat noodles, but around passover we woule either make matza balls or just break up some matza into the soup. It's like adding croutons into a soup, very good. Babka - there are multiple different styles, but the main 2 I remember were fried or "baked". The idea is that it's crushed up matza and eggs prepared like an omelette. You can either break the matza and soak it in the egg mix and fry it on a pan, or my preferred way is to soak one layer at a time and coat them onto an iron pot until it's about half the depth of the pot. You then cook it with a lid on on lowish heat, and when it's done you flip the pot over to get a dome-shaped cake thing. Slice it up, I highly recommend some horseradish, especially the pink beet one you find in Russian delis. The passover school lunch - two matzas with cream cheese and some jam/preserves sandwiched between. My absolute go-to for the week's following passover as we work through the inevitable leftover matza (synagogues and family usually send matza each year, so we use the round ones for the holiday dinner and the square ones all other times).
I had know idea what this bread was all about what it means to the people. Hands down one of the coolest videos out there. What a fantastic way to learn the history of it and that their was way to many people that lost their lives because of it and that they stood together and said we will not be stopped and we wont stop. Congratulations this an eye opening experience and a wonderful way to educate people who don't know what these people these human beings went through for this is just incredible. Thank you for sharing this story.
Amazingly, in Zhoucun of Shandong Province of China, there is a local delicacy almost identical to Matso. And history has it that the orgin of this Zhoucun traditional food dates all the way back to 200 BC in Han Dynasty when people from the 'west region' (middle east and central asia) brought it there
@@SkepticalChris Certainly. There are many different types of flat bread in many cultures, from naan to pita, but matzo is much more than flat bread. It’s religious and historically relevan for Jewish communities all over the world.
All it takes is wheat flour and water kneaded together, rolled flat, and tossed in a hot oven. It's not so surprising that people all around the world would independently hit upon a similar recipe.
Its outstanding to me that all bread makers show how much compassion and effort they put into their bread. It just shows how much effort they put into their recipes and its admiring.
I never knew about this until now, but I sure am glad I have now had the pleasure to now learn about this food, its history and how important it is to this region in Ukraine. I really should try some sometime...but for now it needs to go to those that need it most. Cool that some were still able to be shipped to the UK even after the invasion started. I'm in the UK so much appreciated. Thank you to aaall of you and keep up the wonderful work.
American jew here: I like how matzo tastes, but a lot of ppl find it bland. Also, eating too much of it tends to constipate, so be wary! Still worth trying, especially matzo ball soup! :)
I'm not Jewish but I love Matzo. My ex girlfriend, who is not Jewish either, got me into eating it and now my daughter loves it too. I wish great success for all the companies. Especially the ones in Ukraine.
These types of videos are what link and bind us as people. It was about food, tradition and family. These are things we all understand and love. Thank you for sharing this remarkable non-glamorous and non-celebrity-driven story! As we say in Hebrew, you have performed a Mitzvah (a good deed) by educating and sharing this with the world. As a Jew whose grandfather spent 18 mos at Auschwitz, I am truly grateful. I understand firsthand the persecution of people. Thank you!
The reason that the 'matza shmura', translated as : preserved matza (the round one) is soo much cared for is because they make sure VERY strickly that it doesnt stand more then 18 minutes, and is 'kosher' for passover. The tradition comes from when the Israeli people were fleeting from egypt, they didn't have time to bake normal bread. Great video! Happy passover and easter :) And most importantly, Slava ukraini!
thanks for all the info mate, really interesting stuff (: we dont have a huge jewish community here in australia, although i have been to our Holocaust museum in Melbourne - and have visited the museum + Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin. even as a non-religious person, Islam & Judaism have always been so fascinating to me. especially traditions with food!!! PS if you are Ukrainian i hope youre safe mate
Matza Shmura actually translates as "guarded matza". It has this name because the wheat is guarded from contact with moisture from the time of harvest right until it is mixed for baking.
I just bought some Streit's matzo, and then I saw this video. So funny! The kids loved it, this was the first time they had it. I think my grandma used to keep it around at her house, too. I mostly remember matzo ball soup, I still love that!
I'm not Jewish but I do love it when people keep traditions going. I'm Portuguese living in Canada, so I understand how importance of tradition being in food, culture, or having a relationship with the community around you. It's wonderful what these people are doing and in such hash condition around them. 💕
Michael sounds like he is the reason the quality is so good. It looks like the boss would be okay with it not being just right, but he can't question Mike's 33 years of experience.
An Ukrainian here. Maybe Matza (we call it that way) was banned during the Stalin era, but my mom's Jewish colleagues gave me Matza when I was a child in late 80-s, it wasn't banned back then
@@chimkinNuggz it tastes like a plain cracker. Some people like it, others don’t (I like it, and, in a strange phenomenon, Israeli Arabs or Israeli-Palestinians, really enjoy matza) I wouldn’t suggest eating too much of it though- since it has practically no fiber, it can cause slight gastrointestinal issues.
I am not Jewish, just a Church of England member. I wish this bakery in Ukraine the very best of luck and success. Matzah is a delicious and strangely filling bread. It’s very simple and the very opposite of ultra processed bread. Slava Ukraini.
Amazing story. This is a great religious tradition that needs to be preserved. Keep up the good work (both hand-made and machine-made) and stay safe to those living in Ukraine. I would like try it one day. PS: I am a Christian from Down Under.
My observant grandmother left Berdychiv Ukraine over 100 years ago. Yet I still feel like the Jews in Ukraine are my family. It pains me to see what they are going through, but I also am proud on how well they have done against the invaders.
These people are amazing for continuing their good work, despite what's going on outside. They are truly dedicated to the craft - and a lovely interview, too!
I'm not Jewish but they used pieces of it during communion at the church I grew up in. I really liked the taste but the communion wafers were tiny pieces, tough to make a meal out of. So I found where they kept it in the church kitchen and ate a bunch every week when I was about 10 years old. That's how I saw what the box it came in looked like, then started putting it in the cart when we went to the store. That stuff is delicious, I haven't had any in years but will have to pick some up now the next time I go shopping. Watching this gave me a hankering for it.
We live in Ukraine and have for almost 7 years, and DID NOT know about this matzo bakery. Great to see the continuation of both a religious tradition and a family business, in spite of the illegal invasion by the Russian Federation. Slava Ukraini, Geroim Slava!
i hadnt seen the round hand made matzo in years! (obviously its not in the mass market stores like the machine made) Bless and keep them, especially now. Slava Ukraini and i hope everyone had a blessed pesach
Matzoh is a religious symbolic worship practice that goes back thousands of years Unlike other food products which maybe were a convenience or a gimmick this means something which binds the identity of a people so it’s not going to die out past the third generation It’s also a very storable adaptable product for non-worship services give me an example Jacobs cream crackers creating a biscuit for easy consumption is popular in the UK in the worldwide came from matzoh of Baker And all those little carrs water crackers and knock offs or a similar type product
...I always wanted to go to a matza factory....My Mom told me, her shoma shabos parents, had Streit matza at the table...The more I learn, the more I appreciate things like this....Our family had some Passover saders in this home, that I am in since 1969...And we all had yummy square and shmue matza....I can't wait for Passover...
I'm not an observant but when I did an experience abroad in Australia, in the first period I had to spend less as possible on food, and this bread was really cheap. It was the first time that I saw it sold in a market, it's not available in my country.
Many peoples around the world have a “poor” bread like this…Native Americans here in the US make both Bannock bread and Fry bread, both of which are delicious. My mother used to make “hoe cakes” for us from cornmeal…still love it, especially with butter and honey. Farm workers, including slaves, made the cakes on a hoe over a fire.
Very interesting video! For anyone who cares, the Ukrainian city mentioned in this video - Dnipro - is pronounced with a /i:/ sound, as in "need" - /Dn-ee-pro/.
We get it business insider, millions of Muslims in Ukraine with millions of businesses we have to ignore, and let's see only the jews businesses, I love how the media lies they lied about India and made it from a Muslim country to a Hindu country and now it seems the muslims in Ukraine have vanished, only God knows what's happening to muslims behind media cameras.

I'd like to add a couple of my matzo favorites: Matzo omelette_ Boil some water and add to broken up matzo. Allow to soak just long enough to be pliable, drain and then incorporate into well beaten eggs and finish as you would any omelette to your liking. It has a unique taste and texture that is really nice anytime. Matzo balls - These are the best; I mean it. I call them triple 8s: 8 eggs, 8 oz of butter (one stick) and 8 oz (1 cup) of matzo meal. Proper technique is key to get them light and fluffy. First, you must make sure the butter temp is right at the point where it is about to slump. Eggs should be first placed in warm water so they will blend well into the butter. I will add of half the matzo meal into the egg and butter mix, whisk well, add the rest, whisk, cover the container and off to the fridge. This is a very important step; chilling. The batter MUST BE super cold all the way through. I will make the batter and at least chill overnight. Next; the broth. I like to use homemade of course, but use whatever you like. First bring it to a medium boil, and start rolling the MBs. Wet hands help so the MBs stay super smooth, and the broth will stay more clear. Take large teaspoon or larger heaps and roll into a ball. I like to use batter from the outside first as it warms the fastest. You have to keep the MBs coming while keeping the heat at the just right boil. Once all in, cover and turn down the heat to a simmer. I will open the pot to bump the MBs so they flip over and cook the other side. They expand like 3x, so make sure to use a pretty wide stock pot/Dutch oven, etc. Cooking time is about 50-60 or so minutes, and I check by sampling one (it's hard!) by cutting down the middle. It should be uniformly soft and fluffy all the way through; no darker center. I serve three to a bowl garnished with chopped green onion... I find it an absolute must. Thanks for reading and hope you give them a try.
I used to love eating this when I was younger didn’t know it had a tradition behind it just loved it! Found this very interesting gonna find me somewhen I go shopping next
It was because it’s only allowed to be produced by observant Jews and the Soviet Union was an atheist state Which is fucked about socialism but makes sense
@@johnkane1800 which is ironic given Russia's historical reputation as a refuge for Europe's persecuted groups. Then again, they've also done their share of driving people out. 😪
I love how most of the cultures have "poor people bread", such shared characteristics of cultures show that not one culture was independent and excluded from the world evolving around them
None evolved in vacuum, another amazing example would be Prehistoric dolmen, you can find these from all the way in Scotland to Korea, from Libya to Finland, in Ukraine but also Japan. It’s so widespread!
Both! It’s a little dry when you eat it plain, but you can absolutely do that. For Passover, we have it with Charoset among other things, which is a mix of grated apple, sweet wine, almonds and cinnamon.😊 As a kid I also used to like breaking it up into small pieces and chucking them into milk coffee, to then eat with a spoon. XD Sounds like a weird combo, but it’s pretty good. You can also just eat it with whatever you would normally have on bread, though. o 3 o Chocolate spread is really good on it.
It depends: by the Passover Seder, you must consume some plain and then some with what’s called “Maror”, which is translated as bitter, usually this means romaine letttuce and raw horseradish. Other wise, you may eat it as you wish. Some people, ar more stringent and don’t let any water touch the matzah, if it would then it is called “gebrokts”. A lot of people eat it cracked up into milk (like cereal), others lay ketchup and Melted cheese to make a pizza of sorts. But the most popular way to eat it is called “Matzah Brei” (pronounced br- eye) It is cracked up matzah put into an egg and (sometimes) milk mixture and add some sugar and cinnamon. Fry it. Consume with some more sugar. (Basically , Passover French toast) Enjoy!!
I hope this war will end soon and we will back to normal life here in Ukraine. Send love to all people around the world. Support freedom everywhere, be kind with each other, and proud who you are. 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Matza with chocolate spread is a very tasty and popular passover snack that every Jewish child (and most adults too) in Israel enjoy. You should definitely try it.
Just don’t eat too much. It has practically no fiber so it isn’t good for your stomach if eaten too much. I wouldn’t eat more than a full matzah per day - two max
its important to keep old crafts , recipes, culture , languages and species alive preservation is one of the most important things no matter from where you are keep your culture alive !!! ...
Judaism traditionally prohibits tattooing as self-mutilation but modern interpretations have become more lenient. This leniency came in the wake of WW2, when many survivors of the death camps had tattoos on their forearms, or chests. It was reasoned, naturally, that if the original traditions were maintained, then no one would be able to make the Matzo. The orthodoxy does still follow this tradition, though a Rabbi may make an exception for converts, and those who are from areas where tattoos are common, such as in the west, or in the baltic states like Ukraine.
@@KibuFoxThere is no such a thing of change in "interpretation". It is crystal clear what the Torah says. The WW2 thing wasnt done willingly so they did nothing wrong. Still, those who want to follow Judaism don't do Tatoo.

Babka - there are multiple different styles, but the main 2 I remember were fried or "baked". The idea is that it's crushed up matza and eggs prepared like an omelette. You can either break the matza and soak it in the egg mix and fry it on a pan, or my preferred way is to soak one layer at a time and coat them onto an iron pot until it's about half the depth of the pot. You then cook it with a lid on on lowish heat, and when it's done you flip the pot over to get a dome-shaped cake thing. Slice it up, I highly recommend some horseradish, especially the pink beet one you find in Russian delis.
The passover school lunch - two matzas with cream cheese and some jam/preserves sandwiched between. My absolute go-to for the week's following passover as we work through the inevitable leftover matza (synagogues and family usually send matza each year, so we use the round ones for the holiday dinner and the square ones all other times).
It ain't bread.
@@Swedishchef99 - It's unleavened bread.
I had know idea what this bread was all about what it means to the people. Hands down one of the coolest videos out there. What a fantastic way to learn the history of it and that their was way to many people that lost their lives because of it and that they stood together and said we will not be stopped and we wont stop. Congratulations this an eye opening experience and a wonderful way to educate people who don't know what these people these human beings went through for this is just incredible. Thank you for sharing this story.
Amazingly, in Zhoucun of Shandong Province of China, there is a local delicacy almost identical to Matso. And history has it that the orgin of this Zhoucun traditional food dates all the way back to 200 BC in Han Dynasty when people from the 'west region' (middle east and central asia) brought it there
That is so cool
bread, being the staple food for so many cultures no doubt have some cross cultural similarities.
@@SkepticalChris Certainly. There are many different types of flat bread in many cultures, from naan to pita, but matzo is much more than flat bread. It’s religious and historically relevan for Jewish communities all over the world.
Chinese claim everything is theirs. They even claim they invented the English language and iPhone…
All it takes is wheat flour and water kneaded together, rolled flat, and tossed in a hot oven. It's not so surprising that people all around the world would independently hit upon a similar recipe.
Its outstanding to me that all bread makers show how much compassion and effort they put into their bread. It just shows how much effort they put into their recipes and its admiring.
The recipe is flower and water only
You’re easy to impress
@@romanz9342 guess so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I never knew about this until now, but I sure am glad I have now had the pleasure to now learn about this food, its history and how important it is to this region in Ukraine. I really should try some sometime...but for now it needs to go to those that need it most. Cool that some were still able to be shipped to the UK even after the invasion started. I'm in the UK so much appreciated.
Thank you to aaall of you and keep up the wonderful work.

It’s called unleavened bread in English, if you’ve heard the story of the Exodus or the Last Supper, you’ve heard of it.
Enjoy some.

My parents lived near the original Streit's store on Rivington St...The smell of the freshly baked matzos were the best according to them.
These types of videos are what link and bind us as people. It was about food, tradition and family. These are things we all understand and love. Thank you for sharing this remarkable non-glamorous and non-celebrity-driven story! As we say in Hebrew, you have performed a Mitzvah (a good deed) by educating and sharing this with the world. As a Jew whose grandfather spent 18 mos at Auschwitz, I am truly grateful. I understand firsthand the persecution of people. Thank you!
The reason that the 'matza shmura', translated as : preserved matza (the round one)
is soo much cared for is because they make sure VERY strickly that it doesnt stand more then 18 minutes, and is 'kosher' for passover.
The tradition comes from when the Israeli people were fleeting from egypt, they didn't have time to bake normal bread.
Great video!
Happy passover and easter :)
And most importantly, Slava ukraini!
thanks for all the info mate, really interesting stuff (:
we dont have a huge jewish community here in australia, although i have been to our Holocaust museum in Melbourne - and have visited the museum + Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin.
even as a non-religious person, Islam & Judaism have always been so fascinating to me. especially traditions with food!!!
PS if you are Ukrainian i hope youre safe mate
Matza Shmura actually translates as "guarded matza". It has this name because the wheat is guarded from contact with moisture from the time of harvest right until it is mixed for baking.

Simple to make at home.
I just bought some Streit's matzo, and then I saw this video. So funny! The kids loved it, this was the first time they had it. I think my grandma used to keep it around at her house, too. I mostly remember matzo ball soup, I still love that!
I'm not Jewish but I do love it when people keep traditions going. I'm Portuguese living in Canada, so I understand how importance of tradition being in food, culture, or having a relationship with the community around you.

An Ukrainian here. Maybe Matza (we call it that way) was banned during the Stalin era, but my mom's Jewish colleagues gave me Matza when I was a child in late 80-s, it wasn't banned back then
It’s clear there’s an agenda here.
How does it taste like?
In the late 80s there was already glasnost and perestroika
@@chimkinNuggz it tastes like a plain cracker. Some people like it, others don’t (I like it, and, in a strange phenomenon, Israeli Arabs or Israeli-Palestinians, really enjoy matza)
I wouldn’t suggest eating too much of it though- since it has practically no fiber, it can cause slight gastrointestinal issues.
I don’t think it is a convincing prove because it is hard to caught people mixing flour and water and cooked them.
I am not Jewish, just a Church of England member. I wish this bakery in Ukraine the very best of luck and success. Matzah is a delicious and strangely filling bread. It’s very simple and the very opposite of ultra processed bread. Slava Ukraini.
Amazing story.
This is a great religious tradition that needs to be preserved.

I'm not Jewish but they used pieces of it during communion at the church I grew up in. I really liked the taste but the communion wafers were tiny pieces, tough to make a meal out of. So I found where they kept it in the church kitchen and ate a bunch every week when I was about 10 years old.
That's how I saw what the box it came in looked like, then started putting it in the cart when we went to the store.
That stuff is delicious, I haven't had any in years but will have to pick some up now the next time I go shopping. Watching this gave me a hankering for it.
We live in Ukraine and have for almost 7 years, and DID NOT know about this matzo bakery. Great to see the continuation of both a religious tradition and a family business, in spite of the illegal invasion by the Russian Federation. Slava Ukraini, Geroim Slava!
i hadnt seen the round hand made matzo in years! (obviously its not in the mass market stores like the machine made) Bless and keep them, especially now.
Slava Ukraini and i hope everyone had a blessed pesach
They forgot to mention, the shelf life of thees matzos (without any preservatives) can easily last over a year.
My husband and I use it for communion. It's been several months and it's still good.
Definitely helps with no egg or milk in it.
Matzoh is a religious symbolic worship practice that goes back thousands of years
Unlike other food products which maybe were a convenience or a gimmick this means something which binds the identity of a people so it’s not going to die out past the third generation
It’s also a very storable adaptable product for non-worship services give me an example Jacobs cream crackers creating a biscuit for easy consumption is popular in the UK in the worldwide came from matzoh of Baker
And all those little carrs water crackers and knock offs or a similar type product
Delightful article that's given me a greater understanding and appreciation for the Passover observance.
I would love to try hand-made. I'm not a huge fan of the factory stuff. Thank you for your hard work and love for your fellow human!
Honestly it ain't that hard to make yourself. You probably even have all the ingredients sitting in a shelf somewhere.

...I always wanted to go to a matza factory....My Mom told me, her shoma shabos parents, had Streit matza at the table...The more I learn, the more I appreciate things like this....Our family had some Passover saders in this home, that I am in since 1969...And we all had yummy square and shmue matza....I can't wait for Passover...
I'm not an observant but when I did an experience abroad in Australia, in the first period I had to spend less as possible on food, and this bread was really cheap. It was the first time that I saw it sold in a market, it's not available in my country.
Many peoples around the world have a “poor” bread like this…Native Americans here in the US make both Bannock bread and Fry bread, both of which are delicious. My mother used to make “hoe cakes” for us from cornmeal…still love it, especially with butter and honey. Farm workers, including slaves, made the cakes on a hoe over a fire.
Amazing family tradition. Long may they continue. Inspired me to buy some Matzo and appreciate its history. A wonderful educational short documentary.

I'd like to add a couple of my matzo favorites:
Matzo omelette_ Boil some water and add to broken up matzo. Allow to soak just long enough to be pliable, drain and then incorporate into well beaten eggs and finish as you would any omelette to your liking. It has a unique taste and texture that is really nice anytime.
Matzo balls - These are the best; I mean it. I call them triple 8s: 8 eggs, 8 oz of butter (one stick) and 8 oz (1 cup) of matzo meal. Proper technique is key to get them light and fluffy. First, you must make sure the butter temp is right at the point where it is about to slump. Eggs should be first placed in warm water so they will blend well into the butter. I will add of half the matzo meal into the egg and butter mix, whisk well, add the rest, whisk, cover the container and off to the fridge.
This is a very important step; chilling. The batter MUST BE super cold all the way through. I will make the batter and at least chill overnight. Next; the broth. I like to use homemade of course, but use whatever you like. First bring it to a medium boil, and start rolling the MBs. Wet hands help so the MBs stay super smooth, and the broth will stay more clear. Take large teaspoon or larger heaps and roll into a ball. I like to use batter from the outside first as it warms the fastest.
You have to keep the MBs coming while keeping the heat at the just right boil. Once all in, cover and turn down the heat to a simmer. I will open the pot to bump the MBs so they flip over and cook the other side. They expand like 3x, so make sure to use a pretty wide stock pot/Dutch oven, etc. Cooking time is about 50-60 or so minutes, and I check by sampling one (it's hard!) by cutting down the middle. It should be uniformly soft and fluffy all the way through; no darker center. I serve three to a bowl garnished with chopped green onion... I find it an absolute must. Thanks for reading and hope you give them a try.
I used to love eating this when I was younger didn’t know it had a tradition behind it just loved it! Found this very interesting gonna find me somewhen I go shopping next
I’m not Jewish and I haven’t finished watching the video yet but is there a link to anywhere I can buy Ukrainian matzo to support them?

None evolved in vacuum, another amazing example would be Prehistoric dolmen, you can find these from all the way in Scotland to Korea, from Libya to Finland, in Ukraine but also Japan. It’s so widespread!

Hi Aaron Gross
♥️🙏🏻from Me in Australia 🇦🇺 great to see you here
Fascinating! It's remarkable what Jews have done given all the hostility they've endured.
It would have been nice to show how people eat this. Do they eat it plain or do you put stuff on top?
Both! It’s a little dry when you eat it plain, but you can absolutely do that. For Passover, we have it with Charoset among other things, which is a mix of grated apple, sweet wine, almonds and cinnamon.😊
As a kid I also used to like breaking it up into small pieces and chucking them into milk coffee, to then eat with a spoon. XD Sounds like a weird combo, but it’s pretty good.
You can also just eat it with whatever you would normally have on bread, though. o 3 o Chocolate spread is really good on it.
It depends: by the Passover Seder, you must consume some plain and then some with what’s called “Maror”, which is translated as bitter, usually this means romaine letttuce and raw horseradish. Other wise, you may eat it as you wish.
Some people, ar more stringent and don’t let any water touch the matzah, if it would then it is called “gebrokts”. A lot of people eat it cracked up into milk (like cereal), others lay ketchup and Melted cheese to make a pizza of sorts. But the most popular way to eat it is called “Matzah Brei” (pronounced br- eye)
It is cracked up matzah put into an egg and (sometimes) milk mixture and add some sugar and cinnamon. Fry it. Consume with some more sugar. (Basically , Passover French toast) Enjoy!!
@@Gladissims It tastes good with chilli and coriander sauce with lentils

Just don’t eat too much. It has practically no fiber so it isn’t good for your stomach if eaten too much. I wouldn’t eat more than a full matzah per day - two max

2:59 "Whoever touched Matzo must be observing Jew"
While showing a person with Tatoos
Judaism traditionally prohibits tattooing as self-mutilation but modern interpretations have become more lenient. This leniency came in the wake of WW2, when many survivors of the death camps had tattoos on their forearms, or chests. It was reasoned, naturally, that if the original traditions were maintained, then no one would be able to make the Matzo. The orthodoxy does still follow this tradition, though a Rabbi may make an exception for converts, and those who are from areas where tattoos are common, such as in the west, or in the baltic states like Ukraine.
@@KibuFoxThere is no such a thing of change in "interpretation". It is crystal clear what the Torah says.
The WW2 thing wasnt done willingly so they did nothing wrong. Still, those who want to follow Judaism don't do Tatoo.
