Matzah Meals
Lake Mendota has melted and the sun is starting to shine again in Madison. Spring has arrived, and so have endless boxes of matzah. The Jewish holiday of Passover celebrates the Jewish people’s freedom from slavery in Ancient Egypt. The Jewish people were set free by the Pharaoh and they quickly packed up their things. As they fled from Egypt, they did not have time to properly allow bread to bake. Thus, the hot sun baked the dough on their backs but not enough to rise, creating matzah. Over the eight days of Passover, Jewish people do not eat leavened bread as a reminder of the struggle of their ancestors.
Here are a few ways to spice up your matzah and create delicious meals over the holiday!
