Wikipedia
Matza (also Matzah, Matzoh, or Matsah, , in Ashkenazi matzo or matzoh, and, in Yiddish, matze) is a cracker-like flatbread made of white plain flour and water. The dough is pricked in several places and not allowed to rise before or during baking, thereby producing a hard, flat bread. It is similar in preparation to the Southwest Asian lavash and the Indian chapati.Baking author Peter Reinhart, in his 1998 book ''Crust and Crumb'' (Ten Speed Press, ISBN 0580088023) provides a recipe using the same dough, cooked by two different procedures, for matzo and chapati Matza is the substitute for bread during the Jewish holiday of Passover, when eating chametz—bread and leavened products—is forbidden. Eating matza on the night of the seder is considered a positive mitzvah, i.e., a commandment. In the context of the Passover seder meal, certain restrictions additional to the chametz prohibitions are to be met for the matza to be considered "mitzva matza", that is, matza that meets the requirements of the positive commandment to eat matza at the seder. In The Netherlands it is traditional for Christian families to eat matzo at Easter.
