Matzah

Jewish unleavened bread used in Passover

Matzah

Matzah, matzo, mazza, or maẓẓah (Hebrew: מַצָּה, romanized: maṣṣā; IPA: [maˈt͡sa], pl.: matzot or Ashk. matzos) is an unleavened flatbread that is part of Jewish cuisine and forms an integral element of the Passover festival, during which chametz (leavening agent and five grains deemed by halakha to be self-leavening) is forbidden. According to the Torah, God commanded the Israelites (modernly, Jews and Samaritans) to eat only unleavened bread during the seven-day Passover festival.
