Challah...

Uhmm... the next post was going to be about Challah, but with this Shabbat being the last one just before Pesach, why bother with talking about Challah right now.

Let's eat Matzah!!

Ever taste test Matzah amongst the different brands?

Manischewitz -- Seems to be the most popular, what I grew up with. It has its distinctive texture

Whole Wheat Matzah -- my dear late aunt, the vegetarian, insisted on eating it for additional nutritional value. It does have a nice nutty flavor to it. Great with cream cheese!

Yehuda -- I think I liked it, but I cannot remember! It was good until the deal the following year on Osem maybe.

Holy Land -- which I have yet to really believe its for Jewish families. I think I got it one year at Trader Joe's, my first Passover alone in Long Beach.

Osem -- saw it a few years ago, was tasty, crisp.

Streits -- another good one.

I really have not had all the different ones at the same time, because I can barely get through the 5 lb. block, ok, just kidding. I can barely get through 1 lb. box let alone opening up all the brands in the same year!

I hope to try Shmurah matzah this year. For some reason, I did not make it back to Park La Brea, as I had seem a ton of items available in the middle of the produce section at Ralphs for Passover.

And Next Year, let me bake matzah! But how the heck would I get this oven O-U-P?

May Next Year Be in a New Home!

Happy Pesach!!
