12 surprising dishes you can make with matzo (Meh, I'm matzo sure..)
insider ^

Posted on 03/29/2021 12:03:58 PM PDT by mylife

Matzo is an essential part of a Passover Seder.

Besides being the afikoman, it's a reminder that when the Israelites fled Egypt, they didn't have time to let their bread rise.

That's why during Passover Jews forgo eating leavened bread, which symbolizes pride, in favor of unleavened bread, which symbolizes humility.

But matzo can be used in dishes besides Passover staples like matzo ball soup and kugel. And it can be used all year, not just during Passover.

In honor of Passover starting on March 27, here are 12 surprising ways to cook with matzo.

You can use matzo as the noodles in lasagna.

This one seems like it wouldn't work, but The Spruce Eats writes, "You won't even believe this lasagna is made with sheets of matzo instead of pasta! The Passover-friendly crackers have a tender noodle-like texture once they are baked in this delicious casserole."

Instead of the traditional red sauce and noodles, this lasagna uses sheets of matzo and a white sauce. Because you don't have to cook any noodles, this recipe also takes less time than a traditional lasagna.

Yeah, but often it isn’t. I like it sufficiently fried.

Great story about Matzah:

A Texan was visiting a Jewish friend in NYC, and he was served Matzah Balls with dinner. Afterwards, the Jewish friend asked Tex how he like the Matzah Balls.

Tex answered: “They’re pretty good. What’s the rest of the critter taste like?”
