Latke'
Not Kosher for Passover
**Not kosher.** Latke (traditional potato pancake) is fried in oil and typically contains flour or matzo meal as a binder. For Passover, it must use only matzo meal (kosher for Passover) and avoid chametz (leavened grains like wheat flour); regular latkes with flour are chametz and forbidden. Kosher versions exist using potato starch or specific Passover-approved ingredients, but "Latke'" generically refers to the chametz version.
