How would the matzah become chametz.? It has no leaven. Reply

My question exactly. Things don't seem to be right. Reply

in response to Linda Slager:

If the dough is allowed to sit for too long (18 minutes) without being kneaded, it can begin leavening. Reply

Why does the flour and water come in through separate "windows" ? Reply

in response to Jayne H Fingerhut:

This is a precaution to ensure that no leavening occurs. Reply

Why do they put the indentations in, is that for the cooking process or just to achieve the look? Reply

So, was it just flour and water. Can we use oil? That should be made clear. Fun to watch but not helpful. Reply

in response to Dvorah Robertson:

Sorry if it wasn't clear. Shmurah Matzah contains only flour made from wheat that has been watched from when it was growing in the field and water. Reply

The title of the video is wrong. It shows how hand Matzah is made, not how Shmurah Matzah is made. Reply

Shmurah means "watching"and in the description it states "handmade shmurah matzah"... Reply
