Matzah'
Kosher for Passover
**Yes, matzah is kosher for Passover.**
Matzah (unleavened bread) is specifically made without chametz (leavened grains like wheat, barley, rye, oats, or spelt that have fermented) and must be baked within 18 minutes of mixing flour and water to qualify as kosher for Passover, per Jewish dietary laws (e.g., Exodus 12:15-20). Certified Passover matzah from reliable sources ensures compliance, distinguishing it from regular year-round matzah.
